@Steve: Ouch @Frogurt: I'd avoid Hamels and Duensing. @big o: 4 @cake_eater: I'd grab Rowland-Smith, Mujica, Duke and Cueto. @struggler: I'd sit him.

Looking to lower my ERA (4.25) and WHIP (1.31). Start or Sit E-Jax?

Might as well get all my questions in before the season ends. I will seek your advice once more on whether the following waiver starters are worth the pickup or if I’m just crazy.

Jackson vs Chi
Zito vs SD
Snell vs Tex
Rowland-Smith vs Tex
Mujica vs SF
Duke or Cueto on Sat
Duensing vs KC

Rolling with my last starts of the season. Trying to stay maintain Wins totals and protect my ERA/WHIP. Any you’d avoid of the following?

Correia v. SF
Hamels v. FLA Danks v. DET
Duensing v. KC
Bailey v. PIT

@Grey: He had nearly as many RBIs today as my entire team has had for the last three days. Combined. Pathetic.

@The Real Quiz: It will count as a start, even if it says RP. Yeah, that's how it goes with games started on your last day. For instance, in ESPN I had 180 max and I was at 179. I started 9 guys and maxed out at 187.

Question for Grey or anyone out there:

In an ESPN H2H league, can I put in a RP (or a RP eligible pitcher) that starts and pitches however many innings (i.e. Buckner for the D-Backs tomorrow) and have it go against my allotment of 19 games started? Will ESPN recognize that this RP is actually not pitching in relief but is starting?

And is the rule of thumb regarding the validity of all games pitched on the day you max out your pitching true for all types (H2H vs. Roto) and brands (Yahoo, ESPN, etc.) of leagues?

Danke Schoen.

@Grey: Linceum's mane is awesome! He looks like someone Ellen DeGeneres would be dating. Which makes batters look even more foolish when he sends 'em back to the dugout
