Yet again: Dice and Kershaw

Postby plainyogurt » Tue May 26, 2009 11:08 pm

Kershaw At COL
Dice at Min.

My pitching stats have improved in the last to weeks. Made up about .50 on ERA..Want to keep that happening..

Smart if I sit both of them tomorrow...Leaning more to bench kershaw..Debating on Dice, but MIN has been HOT lately..

Chime in please...

Not answering. Just want to hear what people think about sitting Dice. I am getting murdered in Ws, ERA and WHIP so far. I'm doing good in Ks though.

not answering, but...

I'm trying to decide on Kershaw too. His away ERA is above 7, and his last outing @COL consisted of him giving up 9ER thru 4.2 IP. However, he is pitching 2.17 in the month of May. I'm leaning toward benching him right now, but just wanted to read some other opinions too.

Also, can I ask what people think about AJ Burnett @ TEX (5/27) as well. I'd hate to bench two pitchers, but I feel I must. AJ has been just awful as of late. My other SP going is Bedard, which seems like a no-brainier @ OAK.

Kershaw is a tough one for me, I almost feel like he's due for a quality start against colorado, then again his history against them is pretty awful (mostly because his last start there...) I think it'll be a game time decision for me :-o

I wouldn't start Dice K, give him another start
For every Brett Myers there's a Nate McLouth...

screw it, I'm throwing Kershaw out there and hoping for the best. This is probably the wrong decision though....

Not bad, not amazing. QS though and I believe he's in line for the Win right?

He would be amazing if he could get his walks under control. He's given up 4 walks in each of his last 4 games now.
