#1 waiver on Garza?

[MHD]

I think you wait for Gordon.....I like Garza but I don't know if I believe everything yet. Maybe it is because he has just come from no where all season.....

[FalcoAtL]

Yeah, I agree, but he has been nothing short of amazing though.

Baker and Bonser seemed pretty amazing too and well... I guess 3rd times a charm

I'd look for Gordon, Billy Butler or Homer Bailey.

I say you go for Garza when he's in Yahoo... He's the sure bet right now without knowing if Gordon gets called up...

I agree....hopefully he's more like Weaver/Verlander than Billinglsy/Reyes

So who now? Garza got lit up and Gordon won't get the call according to ESPN. Who do I go for?

If you're looking for a guy to help RIGHT NOW, then pass on Garza. Jason Hirsh *might* be better in that regard, but he is highly risky too. But if you want an excellent prospect for next year and beyond in a Dynasty league (your first post said dynasty), I'd say go for Garza even though he may not have much value this season. Most other top prospects aren't guaranteed callups and some of them like Gordon won't be called up at all. Rookie pitchers are HUGE risks, so picking up Garza if you are pushing hard to win THIS year might not be a good idea.

I know I'm going to try for Garza in the Dynasty roto league I'm in (with Hirsh as the backup plan), but I'm not going to use either for the remainder of the year unless I absolutely have to.

I'm a little haappy Garza got lit up....this will allow me to get him in my deep redraft league...

[FantasyGURU802]

Well, if it is a redraft league, his value isn't that high anyway...
