Nothing makes fantasy owners more excited than a pitcher with K-binges.  Every time a pitcher flashes a huge K rate with sub-par ERAs and WHIPs, everyone goes rushing in drafts the following year trying to pick them up.

Think about it.  Max Scherzer is still got everyone teeming with excitement despite his 5.17 ERA and Yovani Gallardo still can’t get it all together, yet is always big haul on draft day.  While chicks dig the longball, fantasy owners dig the K.
