Pirates Starters Officially Had No Luck in 2011
Jacob Peterson at JunkStats tracks Dumb Luck Wins for pitchers, where the starter gets the win despite giving up at least four earned runs [EDIT: And putting up a negative WPA, thanks Scrutinizer]. Guess which was the only team with no Dumb Luck Wins? (Hint: You're reading a Pirates blog.) This isn't too surprising, since you can't get a DLW if your team doesn't score 5 runs. Pirates pitchers didn't have any Tough Luck Losses either, though five other teams also pulled that off.
