Pedro

[stoner420]

Hey guys. wondering what the status on pedro was at the moment. how much of a risk is he?


im in an 8 team pts league. We are very pitcher heavy(although the rest of the league hasnt really picked up on this fact even after 3 years!)

i have the 8th and 9th picks.

Im hoping johan gets to me but it prob wont happen. I think i want to take the best two available sp's. is pedro one of them? whats his deal this season?


note. i searched for him and found little. if there is another thread please direct me to it.

Pedro is going to start the 3rd game of the season, might be limited to 5 innings his first couple of starts but I don't believe the toe will limit his effectiveness at all.

I wouldn't go all pitching with those 2 spots. If you want to pick up a SP then, take Peavy but take a big bat at that spot.

so you still have him at #2 sp?

I would start him after his first or second start goes successful

this is my top 50 with a set of online projections. now i dont necessarily agree with the projections... i do realize that the top sp will be way better than the top hitter. the numbers next to the players names are the points minus par.

i could do pedro/young at that spot and hope for a top tier rp and another stud sp on the way back.
