Pitching blues...

Postby mekman21 » Wed Apr 29, 2009 9:28 am

So I now have an ERA for the year of 5.00, with a WHIP at 1.43. I have not been worried about it up to this point, as I really liked all these pitchers before the year...but do they need a shakeup? I'm in a 10 team league, and am now tied for 9th in wins, last in ERA, and 9th in WHIP (ie: Pathetic). My pitchers:

Jake Peavy
James Shields
Adam Wainwright
Josh Johnson
Justin Verlander
Gil Meche
Randy Johnson
M. Rivera
M. Gonzalez
J. Cruz
DL: Brandon Webb

Is it wise to stick with them and see what they can do for a while longer? I'm not putting much stock in Webb this year, unfortunately.

Hang on to all those guys except maybe J.Cruz (Juan Cruz?) . . . your patience will be rewarded. However, keep an eye on Randy Johnson. Who is available for Free Agent SPs?
I'm Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!!!!

Relax and breath...hahaha! Peavy will turn it around and Verlander recently had a nice outting. Hold tight to your big guns, but scour the waiver wire for hot pick ups. I always like to try and make trades to improve my team, so that might not be a bad idea either...but like I said, unless you are getting the best player in the trade, hold onto your big guns.
