Last keeper help! Greinke or Verlander!?

Postby Broncos246 » Tue Feb 17, 2009 9:55 pm

categories are W-SV-K-ERA-WHIP. Should I have Greinke or Verlander as my last keeper?

Just last year we were all saying how Verlander has top 10 potential and I'm not sure Greinke has the same upside. Granted the situation is a little different this year considering Greinke had a career year and Verlander imploded, but what do you all think?

I think Verlander is a strong comeback candidate, but I might be more drawn to Greinke.

Without hesitation, Greinke. Greinke is ace caliber, whereas Verlander's peripherals are 3rd starter, 2nd at best. For a guy who throws that hard, Verlander just doesn't get the results. Not to mention Greinke is pitching against the same division and doing significantly better.

little help?
