Closers versus Two Starts

Postby rcbeards » Sat Apr 14, 2007 11:41 am

What do you guys think the best strategy is? Would you guys rather start a top notch closer or take advantage of second and third tier pitchers who two start in a week in points leagues?

I think if you are talking top tier closers, you have to keep them active. If you're debating on a 2-start pitcher compared to Weathers or Dempster, though, then I'd tend to lean towards the 2-start guy (without knowing your exact scoring).

We're talking closers like Street and Papelbon where wins and saves equal the same but you get more points for innings pitched etc. That is if the starter can last!
