I Need To Pick Up Two Starting Pitchers?
With Brett Myers out the rest of the season and anorthere open spot for a pitcher I need to pick up two SP.
Need some advice on who to pick up here are the options:
Brad Penny
Nick Blackburn
Carl Pavano
Josh Outman
Livan Hernandez
Scott Baker
Jarrod Washburn
John Smoltz (DL15)
Barry Zito
Mike Pelfrey
Answer:As of right now, the two pitchers to probably pick up would be Nick Blackburnand Livan Hernandez. Both have been doing pretty well lately. Over the last sixteen innings that Livan Hernandez has pitched, he has only allowed 2 Earned Runs on 16 Hits. His last three decisions have also been wins. In Nick Blackburns last two starts, he has gone 14 Innings, while only giving up 1 Earned Run and 12 Hits. He is also 2-0 in that span. Blackburn has a nice ERA of 3.55 and should get some pretty good run support with Mauer back, and both Mauer and Morneau hitting the ball well right now. Hope this helps!
Fantasy Baseball Trade Question?
Okay I have been offered a deal whichh would send Dan Haren/Chris Davis/Paul Maholm to someone in my league for Johnny Damon/Jayson Werth/Mark Buherle. The only reason he wants Maholm and Davis are because I would have to drop them anyways so he said to just throw them in whichh Im not opposed to doing. Anyway This is my roster as of right now and would you do it?
C Matt Weitheres
1B Albert Pujols
2B Jose Lopez
3B Mark DeRosa
SS Miguel Tejada
OF Jay Bruce
OF Denard Span
OF Michael Bourn
UTIL Luke Scott
Bench Manny Ramirez (this killed me)
Bench Michael Cuddyer
Bench Chris Davis
So Damon and Werth would be injetced right away.
We didn't have to have any certain kind of P between SP or RP so 2 guys in my league loaded up on RP and the rest of us barely have any. SO my P are
Roy Halladay
Edwin Jackson
Dan Haren
Rich Harden
Wandy Rodriguez
Francisco Liriano
Paul Maholm
Josh Outman
Ubaldo Jimenez
Nick Blackburn
DL Justin Duchsherer
Would you make the trade for my team? I also have a deal that would consist of receiving Nelson Cruz for Haren/Liriano. Would you do that trade instead? I know it is a horribly long question and scenario but thanks for any help.
It is a 12 team mixed league.
Answer:I'm going to have to agreee and say that you NEED to pull that deal.
Losing Maholm and Davis won't hurt you AT ALL. Maholm only had a good April, and hasn't produced much since. And sure Davis' power looks attractive but if he doesn't hit a home run, he's striking out. Similar to Ryan Howard but nowhere near that level.
But the reason I say you should make this deal is because your OF is hurting with Jay Bruce's drought and this move will enable you to be patient with him. And not only that but Luke Scott won't keep that crazy HR RBI streak for much longer. That's gonna slow down. Deal him too if you can. Werth and Damon are great pickups, especially at this time. This move is going to help your team a lot.
Pulling this deal will make the wait for Manny a lot easier, and when he returns, you'll have a great outfeeld. You could trade some. Cuddyer won't be much use when you make this deal, so try now to make a move and rid him. Maybe pick up anorthere 2B or anorthere backup to an infeeld. Or maybe a C since Wieters is taking long to come around. But my advice is wait with Bruce, don't drop him. He's a good player so be patient with him.
Losing Haren sucks, but not only is your team ok without him, because you have great pitching, but you're even getting a good one in return with Buerhle.
Don't waste any more time. Pull this deal and improve your team. Good luck to ya.
Who Should I Drop And Pick Up?
Im in a 20 team league with the #1 waiver.
The stats are: R, HR, RBI, SB, BB, TB, AVG, W, L, SV, K, HLD, ERA, WHIP
Current FAs are:
Carlos Gonzales
Matt Stairs
Reed Johnson
Josh Banks
John Lannan
Nick Blackburn
My team is:
C: Miguel Olivo
1B: Joey Votto
2B: Brandon Phillips
3B: Kevin Kouzmanoff
SS: Miguel Tejada
OF: Magglio Ordonez, Willy Taveras, Brian Giles (he's good for BB and TB)
UTL: Emil Brown
BN: Adam Laroche, Melvin Mora
SP: Scott Kazmir, Zack Grienke, Aaron Laffey
RP: Bobby Jenks, Brandon Lyon
P: Todd Wellemeyer, Scott Shields
BN: Dana Eveland
What player should I drop from my team and who should I pick up?
Answer:None of those free agents are worth much, hopefully you just got to first on the waiver because someone ahead of you picked up Bruce, because if you have had it for a while you should of used it on him. I say you should hold on to that waiver spot Price for TB will be called up soon.
In A 3 Man Keeper League Who Do You Think I Should Keep? I Think Kemp, Cabrera And Crawford.?
Im in 3rd place in a 12 man league
C-Geovany Soto
1B-James Loney
2B-Howie Kendrick
3B-Miguel Cabrera
SS-Miguel Tejada
OF-Matt Kemp
OF-Conor Jackson
OF-Hideki Matsui
UTIL-Carlos Pena
BN-Carl Crawford
BN-Jacoby Ellsbury
P-Cliff Lee
P-Josh Beckett
P-Edinson Volquez
P-Nick Blackburn
P-Kevin Slowey
P-Ryan Dempster
P-Brett Myers
P-AJ Burnett
P-Wandy Rodriguez
P-Francisco Cordero
P-Joakim Soria
Answer:You don't mention the type or size of the league or the scoring rules. All of these things are important. As an example, I play in leagues that use assists as a category. that increases the value of the SS position.
But without that, I would probably lean to Kemp, Ellsbury and Lee.
Good luck.
