Yes it is just 15 games into the season but here is a comparison of the 2010 vs 2011 SP based on the HQS/QS/Avg/Poor/BlowUp metric (plus a few others).
| Pitcher | Starts | HQS | QS | Avg | Poor | BlowUp | %HQS/QS/Avg | %Poor/Blowup |
| Correia | 3 | 33% | 33% | 0% | 33% | 0% | 67% | 33% |
| Karstans | 1 | 0% | 0% | 0% | 0% | 100% | 0% | 100% |
| Maholm | 3 | 33% | 33% | 33% | 0% | 0% | 100% | 0% |
| McDonald | 3 | 0% | 0% | 33% | 0% | 67% | 33% | 67% |
| Morton | 3 | 67% | 33% | 0% | 0% | 0% | 100% | 0% |
| Ohlendorf | 2 | 0% | 0% | 0% | 50% | 50% | 0% | 100% |
| 2011 Totals | 15 | 27% | 20% | 13% | 13% | 27% | 60% | 40% |

My summary:
- More HQS, but same basic HQS/QS/Avg=60% (League Avg is 74%)
- Correia, Morton, and Maholm doing fine. The others, not so good.
- Giving Up 2 less hits per 9, 1 run less per 9
- Getting 1 Less KO/9 and issuing 1 more BB/9
