Who to drop for Chris Carpenter? WHIR

Postby battles » Tue May 12, 2009 9:39 pm

Currently playing in a 10 team h2h league 5x5. Chris Carpenter is sitting on waivers right now, and I want to pick him up. Who should I drop for him? I'm thinking Mark Buehrle, whom I just recently picked up. Or should I be looking to drop someone else?

hard to trust Carpenter at this point in time - but Berhle is really your only guy to drop if anyone at all

Yea i would drop Buehrle. You are carry a lot of pitchers and carp will be a nice upgrade. The problems carp has had just recently are completely unrelated to the struggles with his elbow the last few years. His elbow is suppose to be 100% there and this newest injury was just a fluke. This is a GREAT buy low opportunity for you. i can't believe he is on waivers.

I hope you're right. He just seems so damn fragile.

He was on waivers cause he's fragile and will get hurt again and again. You can't trust him.

I wouldn'T drop anyone for him.
