Mark Mulder does have some things to straighten out, but when he's on his game he is without a doubt better than Danny Haren. When Mulder has a normal year, he's on of the top pitchers in his league.
The A's, being a small market team, got what they could from the Cards when they let Mulder go, but if money wasn't an issue, Mark Mulder is the better pitcher.

He hasn't shown it yet this year. On top of that his numbers would be even worse if he were in the AL.

Absolutely. If memory serves, the era in the AL is generally half a run higher than in the NL. So bump Mulders 4.75 era up to 5.25 in the AL...

Great point AA. Mulder's past can't be debated, but Haren has simply been better this year, and that's after an April that left both Oakland and Fantasy Owners ready to tell him to try his hand at a new career.

You know what I think is amazing, how people are soo quick to jump all over a guy like Zito, but cover up the name and Mulder is a waivor wire pitcher aswell! Of course I am disregarding track record...
zito's numbers lately are definitely better than waiver wire material... but in the beginning i was hearing some say drop him. too bad it didn't happen in any of my leagues.

Cy Young award can carry you a long way (for the wrong reasons). "Potential" and "Age" are the most dangerous words in fantasy baseball.
