Biscuits step back on FIP scale

Instead of having an overly fallow blog day and remembering the fielding independent pitching stat, here's a repeat from our May 31 post and a look at Montgomery's current pitchers.

FIP is meant to indicate what a pitcher's ERA should be, if not for the differences in defense. The "luckiest" Biscuit at the moment, except for one-start Alex Colome, is Neil Schenk, whose ERA is almost a run less than it supposedly should be. The "unluckiest" Biscuit is Matt Bush, whose ERA is more than double what it should be, according to FIP.
