Is time for the MR approach?

[markj11]

My league counts W, CG, SHO, K, BB, SV, WHIP, ERA, K/BB, and K/9. My pitchers look like this:
M. Cain
J. Bonderman
J. Verlander
S. Kazmir
M. Hendrickson(just picked up)
J. Nathan
JJ. Putz
S. Torres
O. Dotel

I am below the middle in all pitching cats including last in W(9), K/BB and next to last in K/9 and BB.

I have tried to deal Verlander/Torres for B. Ryan (rejected) and Saito (rejected). Torres is only helping in one cat(SV) and killing my other cats. Am I correct in thinking that a WW middle realiver would be much more valuable than these two low K high BB pitchers?

In your league set up, closers have very little value. However, good pitchers, whether they are starters or relievers, have a ton of value. So yes, I would drop Torres for an MR even if you are sacrificing SVs.

Forgot to mention that a Verlander/Torres for C. Ray also got rejected.

Yes, K's are very important. One guy said the only way I could get E. Bedard was for J. Nathan.

That's ridiculous. I wouldn't do that considering Nathan should be the most valuable reliever in that set up.

I would grab someone off waivers if that is the case.

Thank you, would you agree that Verlander's value is greatly reduced in this setup?
2W 15BB 24K 2.75ERA 1.22WHIP 1.60K/BB 6.00K/9

And I don't see his ERA staying at that level. So basically he could help me in W, ERA, WHIP and hurt me in K, BB, K/BB, and K/9 whereas a good MR would hurt me in W and help in ERA, WHIP, K, BB, K/BB, and K/9.
