About Joe Blanton

[ordinarygenius]

I am in a very deep mixed league and have been holding on to Joe Blanton, much to my disarray, since the beginning of the season. Do you guys think he can turn things around like he did last year or is he too out of shape to ever get it going without messing up every other start?

if you're in a very deep league, i'd hold on to him, because ppl in FA probably won't be better. he had a great 2nd half last yr, and i would hold onto him and hope he turns it around.

I agree, he was dropped in many leagues last year around this time and his numbers were around the same. Sometime around late June he put together a string of excellent starts and the A's went nuts. He is a buy low candidate right now

if you have the space, I'd hang on to him

Thanks guys. But let's say, would you drop Blanton for Bonser if you had the chance? I have.
