Is Max Scherzer worth losing my #1 waiver priority?

[djlenny22]

I currently have Oswalt, Burnett, David Price (whenever he's called up), Buehrle, Slowey as my main five pitchers and I stream every now and then with matchups. I'm a little weak at strikeouts but not horrible. I drafted Offense heavy so I'm set there. Just wondering if Scherzer is worth losing my #1 priority when other stud players will get called up and I'll be first to snatch them up (Tommy Hanson and Matt Wieters). What do you think?

Thanks for any advice

i dont think he's that "impact" guy that u can snag with the #1. plus sometimes ppl are really dumb and drop pretty good players since they are impatient. max is maybe a 3/4th type guy in fantasy rotations? plus wieters is out there, he'd be a "impact" guy to get when available

In a league where guys likw wieters aren't in the player pool yet this is actually in interesting question. I'd say do it for sure in another situation, but here, I think you wait it out, unless you have a stud catcher or don't have a good history of pulling off big trades. I like Scherzer, but think Wieters is a pretty big prize who isn't too far off, as is worth waiting for. anyway, who knows what the guy that gets Scherzer might drop?
