Should I see Maholm high?

Postby JOBA » Fri Apr 24, 2009 1:31 pm

Should I sell him now or hold on to him? If i sell, what do I look for in return?

JOBA--- I would definitely sell this guy high.... I don't see him keeping this up for too long.

I would advise holding onto him. Not because I think he's going to have a sub-3.00 ERA all year, but more because I don't think you'll get much value out of him. I don't think anyone is going to "buy" him at a value of a 15-win, 3.20 ERA guy, so you might as well ride him while he pitches well and just move on if he starts getting hit around.

I agree with Mak here, Maholm will be able to give you more value than what people would be willing to pay for him. If he continues to pitch well and ESPN catches on and pumps up his value, that is when you should go out and trade him. Maholm is a nice hold at this point: I believe he is a great pitcher.

You should definitely see Maholm high.....he gets crazy! One time at this party back in college...

Just kidding... I think the only way to sell him high is if someone else sees him as more valuable then he is, which is unlikely unless you find a team thats incredibly desperate for a starter. That said, if somone is willing to overpay, by all means...

Haha... that was a good one. I would hold onto him, unless you have a Pirates homer in your league (and they are hard to come by)...
