SP bad..do i need to make a move?

Postby dracovonborax » Thu May 14, 2009 11:29 am

My starters are Jake Peavy, Josh Johnson, Scott Kazmir, Joba Chamberlain, and A.J. Burnett. i just added Ubaldo Jimenez since he has looked decent as of late. my question is: is this squad good enough to stick with or to i need to move one of my OF to bring in a stud? My outfield includes: Grady Sizemore, Alfonzo Soriano, Jacoby Ellsbury, Shane Victorino, Hunter Pence, and as of the Manny scandal, Juan Pierre. frankly, i love my OF. i normally have to bench either Vic or Pence,whichever has the worse matchup or is doing poorly that week. when/if a healthy Pronk returns to the lineup, i'll need to make another spot but Juan has an expiration date of July 4.
Do i stick with my bats and hope my arms come around or do i need to make an offer for a stud with my Grady/Alfonzo? thank you and here is my team:
Ca. B. Molina
1B. R. Howard
2B. R. Weeks
3B. D. Wright
SS. J. Peralta
MI. A. Ramirez
CI. B. Butler
LF. J. Pierre
CF. G. Sizemore
RF. J. Ellsbury
OF. H. Pence
Ut. A. Soriano
BN. S. Victorino
DL. T. Hafner
DL. R. Doumit
DL. T. Glaus
SP. J. Peavy
SP. J. Chamberlain
SP. J. Johnson
SP. S. Kazmir
RP. K. Wood
RP. R. Betancourt
RP. T. Hoffman
P. J. Motte
P. D. Weathers
P. A. Rhodes
BN. A. Burnett
Bn. U. Jimenez
BN. K. Wells
my team does count holds.. thus all the holders. thank again.

I really don't think your SP's are that bad. You could use one more solid arm though. I wouldn't deal Sizemore or Soriano for an arm unless you're getting Johan or Lincecum. I'd shop around Pence, who's hitting well right now, for a good mid-level arm since you have great OF depth.

I agree, your pitchers aren't bad at all. Jimenez is your 6th pitcher and I loved him in the preseason. I would sit tight, or like Twistdude said, try and move someone like Pence. Kazmir's been roughed up some, as has Burnett, but I really like your pitchers.

I think your staff will be fine . A couple guys have just had rough starts, but I think they will turn it around.

Agree, if you could move a sell high guy like Pence then I would do it, but I do not think you really have a need here with SP, they look good.

Help with mine? http://www.fantasybaseballcafe.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=384983
