Drop Wieters?

Postby login » Tue Mar 24, 2009 10:47 pm

Matt Wieters is going to start the season in the minors and, I also have David Price who's in the same situation. I need pitching help and was thinking of dropping him for Manny Parra, Justin Duchsherer, or Hiroki Kuroda.

Also how would you rank these SP's and would you drop Jordan Zimmerman for any of them?

Wieters is way too talented to just drop... he's supposed to be up some time this year. I'd say try and trade him for something...

Do you really want to tie up a bench spot for a 2nd catcher in a 10-team H2H league? I would not. Doumit is a fine C option. It's not as if Wieters will outperform him in the 2nd half of the season to the degree that it would change the landscape of your team. I would poke around and see if any team is interested in a trade but my hunch is in a small league probably not. So yes I would probably be willing to drop him.

Maine has a good swing for a pitcher but on anything that moves, he has no chance. And if it's a fastball, it has to be up in the zone. Basically, the pitcher has to hit his bat. - Mike Pelfrey

yeah don't drop Wieters, I would say Volstad for kuroda, I would stay away from Duch, he has been, having arm issues this spring which don't look good
