Ricky Romero @NY

[metsfan12]

Would you start Romero, who has been amazing lately, at NY where the yankees are obviously piling up the runs, if you were in my situation? It is roto with 1250 IP limit and I am punting saves so I am basically starting 4 SP PLUS 2 spot start a week or so (Romero was a spot start but now I am keeping him). RIght now I am 33IP ahead of pace according to yahoo. Doing very poorly in wins, pretty good in K's and very good in ratios...

Halladay
Bililngsly (recently traded Cliff Lee in a package for him)
Vazquez
Romero
Lilly
Volquez (DL)
JA Happ (spot start vs Cincy tomorrow)

This is a tough one. I think I'm going to sit Romero today unless someone can convince me otherwise.

Too bad A-rod didn't take today off instead of yesterday. I'd start him for sure with Ransom in there. Girardi could still potentially give some guys the day off today. I am learning towards starting him after the shows he put on in his last 2 starts.

I have him too...im leaning towards benching him but I am going to wait for the lineup card to come out....i got burned last time out when i sat him against a hot Tampa lineup I dont want the same thing to happen

Rios just made me feel alot better about taking a chance on Romero. Probably 2 more times through the top of that order left for Romero though...keeping fingers crossed.
