Verlander for Votto--as Always WHIR

Postby jason128 » Wed May 13, 2009 9:31 am

Is this a no brain decision. this is a dynasty league. roster is below. I just traded wainwright for brett myers and Abreu (other minors involved but this was the nuts and bolts of it) and think my bats are pretty weak. probably could survive without verlander. Whats your thoughts. scoring is at the bottom as well. I am currently 4-1 in a 12 team H2H dynasty league but only 6th in scoring.

C---R. Martin
1B---Jose Lopez
2B---Cano
3B---Youkalis---now on DL
SS---Rollins
OF--Derosa
OF--Bobby Abreu
OF---Hermedia
U----Peralta

Bench:
Chris B. Young
Delmon young

Active Pitchers----Weekly changes and you start 7 a week so this changes weekly. use relievers and 2 start pitchers between all of these.

Verlander, Justin
Manny Parra
Myers
Fransicso Cordero
Pettite
RIchmond
Shields
J. Vazquez
Capps
Carmona
Cook
Garland
Guthrie
Lidge
Lohse
Uehara
Ziegler

I'd go ahead and do it. Votto is a stud and your batting is a lil weak . . . when Youk Dog comes back, you can slide Votto to your UTL spot. Your pitching has enough depth I believe :-D

I would do it as well. Votto is a great hitter now and will only get better. I would take him over Verlander.
