Rich Harden @ WAS 7/16

I'm stumped.

I'm starting him, because it is against the Natinals, but if Harden gets blown up by this team, I'm dropping him before the game's over.

Hey, I'm going thru the same thing. I'm in a h2h just barely holding on to 4th place and we start 3 starters. I have Johan vs Kawakami, Josh Johnson vs Hamels, and Kershaw vs Hampton. Currently I have Kershaw on my bench. I almost want to bench Johnson but I know that's stupid. So I've been going back and forth between Harden and Kershaw and can't make up my mind because it's the Nats. Please someone talk some sense into me.

I have Harden too. I'm going to start him, but I want to dump him so bad. Between him and the first month of Ricky Nolasco, my ratios are a joke.

As a cubs fan, harden is scaring me. wonder if he isnt a 100% or just not used to pitching this deep in the season, not that the half way mark is deep. His stuff looks flat of late, he is leaving way too many pitches in the heart of the plate. With Dempster down and Harden struggling Cubs may have a tough time staying in the race...thank for god for Randy wells...kid has been the savior.

in reality if you aren't going to start Harden today then he shouldn't be on your roster. They don't come much easier than the Nats. tas.
