Is Harang worth a number 1 waiver?

There's a lot of pitching upside on your WW so I probably wouldn't spend the priority. Grab him when he clears or take one of the other options.

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

Agreed with Amazinz, no need to burn a #1 priority as there is a lot of depth. Harang isn't head and shoulders above the others, so I'd save the priority for a top player.

Good luck!

I agree. Let him clear waivers and then pick him up. Also keep an eye on Maholm. I think he is in line for a very productive season.
