SP starts on monday...

I won't have time to set lineups tomorrow and I need some help. Should I start one, both or none?

Scott Baker (vs. TB)
Chris Young (@ Col)

Right now I'm thinking about sitting both...

Chris Young is an extreme fly ball pitcher, I would never start him at Coors.
Depending on your needs I would certainly give Baker a try vs TB.

what do you mean by needs? I'm in a roto league so any stats are needed, but I am sort of scared by Baker's slow start...

Roto league I wouldn't start either.

Needs = You could be in a league with weird settings.


If I owned Baker (which I don't) I would definitely still give him a chance against TB.
If he gets pwned this start, I'd probably start suspecting that he's hurt.

no weird settings, but has Baker just been having bad luck, or has he just been pitching badly? Because if he is pitching badly, I might just want to wait for a good start before starting. (My ratios are in bad spots as is since I have Hanrahan, Sherrill, Corpas, Morrow and had Motte on his opening day BS)

I don't think conceding 7 HRs in 8 innings counts as bad luck.

[krnrpide 92]

yeah... and I thought he was a control guy... so I think I am willing to bench a gem over starting a really bad start...
