Baseball: June pitchers to back and fade
By MARC LAWRENCE (Courtesy of playbook.com)
    In keeping with our game plan of acknowledging good pitchers and avoiding bad pitchers during their GOOD and BAD months of the season, below is the list of arms to watch throughout the month of June.  Note that the W-L records are those of the team in which the listed pitcher started over the previous three seasons. 
    Thanks to my good friend Tom Freese, handicapper par excellence, I present a list of the BEST and WORST pitcher performance records during the month of June over the past three years.  And, oh yeah, hey peanut man, toss over a bag my way, wouldya. Enjoy...
