@G: I don't consider any of them safe, but I'd start them all.

I need to conserve innings so Im just wondering who you would be hesitant on because they might get pounded on.

Hamels@ Fla
Shields @ KC
Jurrjens vs. NYM
Maholm vs. SF
or are they all safe and if you had to bench one who would it be? I need low ERA as much as anything

@Robert: It's not a great start, but I would in Florida.

Everyone throwing Nolasco vs the Phils on Friday?

By: Grey

Grey — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 04:24:17 +0000

@Barnaby Jones: Nolasco by a hair.

By: Barnaby Jones

Barnaby Jones — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 04:18:58 +0000

Going forward, Oswalt or Nolasco?

By: Grey

@big o: I wouldn't touch Kaz until he throws a decent game.

By: Grey

Grey — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 04:07:34 +0000

@JR: I wouldn't start either, but I guess go Contreras if you have to. @Colin: Pujols is not a keeper, the other two are. @Robert: I'd take A-Gonz. @GTS: I started Cook and Gaudin. @Robert: Vazquez, Wainwright, Lackey, Nolasco, wouldn't start the last two. @Nick: I'd trade either, in that order. @Doc: Sure

@Grey:
a 7.71 era with a whip of almost 1.80
yet , i think he’s going to strike-out 11 or 12 of hochevar’s teammates on saturday .
am i crazy ?
am i suppose to fear the Kazman ?
his k/bb ratio is 50/33
but , how many walks will these free-swingers accept ?

start ervin santana against the a’s tomorrow? his career stats there make me… salivate….

I would throw out all career stats – he now has new stats – only the pitchers that threw in the HomeRun Derby are worst except the one that pitched to Brandon Inge – sign him up

@Grey: Would you trade Slowey or Jurrjens for Nolasco?

By: Robert

Robert — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 03:42:02 +0000

Please ranks these for the short week: Nolasco vs Phil, Wainwright vs Ari , Kaz @KC , Vazquez vs Mets, Lackey @Oak, Liriano@ Tex

He pitched well – bottom line is the Padres played terrible defense tonight.

By: Mr Baseball

Mr Baseball — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 03:39:37 +0000

I started Gaudin – 4 innings 7 K’s

how about the E Tito Santana performance through 5 innings – so far so good

By: Colin

Colin — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 03:38:02 +0000

@GTS: I almost picked Gaudin up, but I am neck and neck with the 2nd place guy in ERA and Whip. I'll stick to my 3 headed monster of Carpenter, Gallardo and Vazquez...with Tommy Hanson as the tail.

By: GTS

GTS — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 03:31:40 +0000

any crazy razzballers out there start Gaudin tonight like me?

By: Robert

Robert — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 03:21:59 +0000

Grey- I could use more HRs. Lackey for A. Gonzalez=good trade? Low value now, think he hits 15 more? Thanks as always for your insights.

By: JR

JR — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 03:21:10 +0000

Uff. I can’t believe I’m asking this one: Arroyo or Contreras?

By: Colin

Colin — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 03:15:31 +0000

Holy crap how did you get Pujols for those two? Are you able to keep him for next year too?

By: Simply Fred

Simply Fred — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 03:13:07 +0000

@royce!: Grey was asked this one yesterday: “Pick one:
Jamie Moyer @ FLA
Mike Hampton @ LAD
Trevor Cahill vs. LAA
Andrew Miller vs. PHI
Manny Parra @ CIN
Josh Geer vs. COL (Hodge Padre?)

His response: “Punt? Moyer…”

It’s what he do.

@bpasinko: Brandon

By: Grey

Grey — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 02:55:21 +0000

@Colin: If it helps your team, take it. It looks fair, but if someone's playing for next year, you should be getting a lot more. For instance, in a keeper, I traded Gaby Sanchez and Rasmus for Pujols.

By: bpasinko

bpasinko — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 02:53:19 +0000

Alexei Ramirez or Brandon Phillips for this year and next?

By: Colin

Colin — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 02:51:59 +0000

Grey – the offer has been changed:

I give:

J. Upton
D. Fowler

I get:

J. Loney
S. Victorino
J.A. Happ
K-Rod

Do I still take it?

By: Mr Baseball

interesting friday night match up – Bucholz on the road against Romero

red soxs lit him up early in the season

By: Grey

Grey — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 02:45:44 +0000

@big o: Thanks! @Anonymous: I think he's had it for a few weeks already. I think he'll be fine, maybe miss a handful of saves to Troncoso. @I’m Keith Hernandez: I would've said yes, as I said above to someone else... Or maybe that was in the forum. @Steve: After a week of doing nothing. @Mr Baseball: Hehe @martin: Holliday's above Werth, barely. I'd take Burnett and Ethier if I needed pitching. @Colin: I'd take the deal. @paulzone: You think you need Bourn, Kemp and Crawford?

do i trade cabrera for crawford?

offense:
c-posada
1b-berkman
2b-hill
3b-cabrera
ss-barmes
lf-ibanez
cf-victorino
rf-kemp
util-j.upton
bench: bourne/chipper

12 man roto…i’m good in r, hr, rbi, avg…okay in obp…terrible in steals,errors, gidp

i just acquired bourne. would slot chipper in 3rd but he hurts in errors/gidp. cabrera gets a lot gidp. crawford would help in sb, gidp, err vs. ibanez. we play individual outfileld positions. i could then look to trade ibanez. thoughts? should i make the trade??

By: Colin

Colin — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 02:06:17 +0000

that’s Justin Upton btw.

By: Colin

Colin — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 02:05:48 +0000

Grey – I got a guy playing for next year offering me Victorino, Happ and K-Rod for Upton and a throw in. Upton has 2 years left after this season in our keeper league. I’m in first place, but have had a few nagging injuries that could come back to haunt me and I’m looking to add quantity and quality. I also have the number 1 waiver to use in this NL only league on Halladay or Holliday.

Should I do it?
