Need to pick up a pitcher to replace Richmond who went on the DL? Who do I take a chance on being the best the rest of the year. I'm currently 1st in ERA, T2nd in WHIP, 2nd in K's, 4th in W. This is a 12 team keeper league, 5x5 roto scoring.
Current staff: Baker, Billingsley, Greinke,Kuroda, Lee, Millwood, Scherzer, Bell, KRod.
Contreras is red hot, and I like Lannan a lot - he's underrated and flying way under the radar on that horrible Nationals team. Go with one of them - I'd go Lannan if it's a keeper league and there's any chance you can keep him for a late round.
would you take one to just start at home? Lannan has been great at home.. 2.03 ERA/ 1.18 WHIP/ .246 BAA compared to on the road.. 5.12 ERA/ 1.55 WHIP/ .274 BAA thats not including todays game.
none of the other names really wow me, but using Lannan at home could be beneficial.
