So I am in the championship finals, and I have 2 questions. I have Arod who is either been hurt or going o-fer and I wondering if I should drop him for keppinger ?
Also, I keep playing the carousel for util with Ryan Howard and j-roll. Is there one I should stick with? Who the rest of the season or do I play match ups everyday from here till next Wednesday?
Thanks in advance.

I ended up rolling with Sanchez last night worked out for me. Now I’m thinking I should hold him for is last start at the Twins. Don’t do me dirty, Sanchez.

How about Clayton Richard Vs LAD?

Deduno is pulled after 1.2 IP due to injury. papasmurf must’ve been streaming him.

@papasmurf, Yeah, I don’t blame the trade entirely, but I do think that was the final straw and what was a declining K-rate and ERA…

@Grey, I don’t think we can blame the trade entirely. The wheels fell off in June already. Before the trade his ERA was close to 4, which is about where it is now after the CG SHO.

Hey Grey,

Are you starting Maholm tonight vs. Mia?

Thanks a lot.

By: Grey

Grey — Wed, 26 Sep 2012 16:12:43 +0000

I wouldn’t start either…

By: Grey

Grey — Wed, 26 Sep 2012 16:12:23 +0000

Thanks, S.Berry, Yeah, I’d start anyone vs. the Astros…

Doesn’t sound terrible…

I wouldn’t start him…

If no one gets shelled and no one pitches well? Then your ratios aren’t going to move… If they all get shelled you’re gonna lose points in WHIP… If they all pitch great, you probably won’t move much…

Yeah, Anibal was a surprise disappointment, but the trade happened and then what can you do? Gotta play cards dealt…

By: Grey

Grey — Wed, 26 Sep 2012 16:08:06 +0000

Yeah, I had Martin at one point too… Probably a better chance he hit 0-for-9 for you then 5-for-10, say… Since he is also hitting below .210…

No problem… I don’t like Porcello at all… Richard would be my choice… Not sure of who else is available in your league…

Ah…Baseball, so ridiculous…

Darvish should be back later this week… I don’t like Turner’s start… Doubront’s is better, still not great…

Hey grey I’m in the championship and just want to know if I should start either Jarrod Parker or Martin Perez in Texas tonight.

By: STRAWberry

Hello Grey,

Great write, as always.

Would you recommend starting Carpentar tonight at Houston? I’m in the finals of my H2H league and we will be very tight in all 5 pitching cats all week, i.e. one bad start could be the difference in supreme victory or waiting until next year.

Many thanks in advance!

oh yeah, one more thing (i feel like columbo)…

pitching burnett on friday at home vs cin. thinking about going against conventional wisdom and streaming the opposing cin pitcher, homer bailey, to increase my chances of getting a much needed win

good or another stupid idea?

I’m desperate for Ws but I also need to be wary of ERA and WHIP. Should I start Alex Cobb tonight vs. Jon Lester and the Red Sox at Fenway? Stream-O-Nater says 94…that’s iffy territory.

hi grey

this is a strange and tough question, but i’ll give it a go

std 5×5 roto league

need 1 or 2 wins

thinking about streaming lots of sp’s (like 5) on the day i go over the innings limit to try to get some cheap wins (have enough innings to throw 3 of my own sp’s until end of season)

assume for this that no pitcher has a great 1-2hitter/10+k/0 era game and no one gets completely shelled

question is: how much would you guess/estimate that era and whip would raise/lower based on this one 35-40 innings day? era is 3.77, whip 1.25 (lots of teams within .02 whip of each other)

is this a good idea?

thanks as always
