Drop Kazmir!? Need to activate Lackey, WHIR!!

Postby thejusman1 » Sat May 16, 2009 5:19 pm

10 Team H2H Daily Lineup League
Hitting Categories: R, RBI, SB, HR, CS, K, AVG, OBP, SLG
Pitching Categories: W, L, SV, BSV, K, K/9, ERA, WHIP, IP

Roster:
C - Chris Iannetta
1B - Prince Fielder
2B - Ian Kinsler
3B - David Wright
SS - Stephen Drew
OF - B.J. Upton
OF - Andre Ethier
OF - Josh Hamilton
Util - Jayson Werth
BN - Adam Jones


SP - Chad Billingsley, Cole Hamels, Aaron Harang, Scott Kazmir, Ervin Santana,
Edwin Jackson, Mark Buehrle
RP - Heath Bell, Ryan Franklin, Brian Fuentes, Huston Street
DL - John Lackey, B.J. Ryan

Am I insane for considering this? My other pitchers I could drop: Harang, Edwin, and Buehrle. I don't want to drop any of them. My extra bat I could drop: Ethier. Don't want to drop him just yet either. Kazmir has been extremely disappointing this season, but is it too early to give up him? If I can trade Kazmir for a slice of pizza and Pat Burrell, would you do that over giving up Edwin Jackson? The pizza has already been eaten, so I need to know soon!!!

I think Lackey would be an improvement over Kazmir. Scott seems to have a hard time putting 2 good years together and the Rays don't seem to have the same punch they did last year. I wouldn't drop Aaron or Edwin, both are having decent years.

Unfortunately, you have yourself in a pickle. But its a good one.

Im in a 10 teamer as well... Buehrle is on waivers... cut him! Never cut Kaz... he will pick it up (known to be a bit shaky every year but will get you the Ks and some wins)

I'd drop Jackson. No chance I'd give up on Kazmir in a ten team league.

Can you help with this one? viewtopic.php?t=385463
