Sell high on Reimold and Porcello, or hold? WHIR

Postby razzy » Wed May 27, 2009 8:54 pm

Someone wants to give me Teahen and Liriano for Reimold and Porcello. This is a deep AL-only league and after the AS break I will need a third baseman. 8-team league with 22 starters, 6 man bench. There are virtually no third basemen on the FA market but still have more than a month to go to find someone.

Liriano is struggling, but given his studly past, is he worth gambling on? He has lost about 3-4 mph off of his fastball since before his TJ surgery.

Will Porcello and Reimold keep this up? Porcello in particular has really picked it up of late. And Reimold hit a walk-off homer today. Their value might be at their peak right now, so maybe I can do better.

Thoughts? WHIR

Wow. Tough call. Liriano has really struggled, but I think I'd take a gamble on him.

I have had Liriano this year and last year so my opinion might be a bit bias on him, cause I can't stand him! Keep waiting for him to turn it around and pitch like he did b4 surgery, but I finally come to my senses that I don't think he is going to do it. I wouldn't be oppossed to you making that trade, but I would maybe try to get a different pitcher that Liriano if he is willing to depart w/someone w/a high ceiling like his.

Liriano has been nothing but hype so far. Porcello is stable in the rotation, IMO, he's definitely a keeper.

Teahen is on my team, and has dropped quite a bit until hit a HR today. He's a only marginal player. The only reason I keep him is because he can play OF as well.

No Deal.
