Anyone else cutting bait with Clayton Kershaw?...WHIR

Postby AshesOfEmpires » Sun Apr 26, 2009 10:38 pm

I dropped Scott Baker earlier in the week for almost fragging my pitching for the week and now i'm contemplating doing the same with Kershaw. I know he has the ability to be Sammy Koufax, but is it worth 3 or 4 outings like today and Tuesday to get one like he had against San Fran earlier in the season. Maybe I'm being too impatient with him. These guys are out there if you think I should cut him and my staff is under that.

Glen Perkins, Edwin Jackson, Jordan Zimmerman, Anibal Sánchez, Tim Wakefield


SP-Zack Grienke, Cole Hamels, Scott Baker, Kevin Slowey, Paul Maholm, Chad Billingsley, Clayton Kershaw, Francisco Liriano
RP-Trevor Hoffman, Heath Bell, Trevor Hoffman, Joel Hanrahan, Scott Downs

Well you certainly should pick up Zimmerman ASAP.

Don't cut Kershaw though, especially in a H2H league. He's gonan be real good, and give you big K numbers. It's a long season.

I would give him a little longer and see what happens. Young guys are always going to have their ups and downs. THat's the chance you take by drafting or acquiring one. But, I still like Kershaw better than the rest of the guys you listed.

please help
