Piniero Today?

[Airborne24]

12 team ESPN standard 5x5 H2H league.

This is the second time I've asked about Piniero on this forum. He's been unequivacally amazing all year, and I still benched him last week in Philly and saw him throw up some great numbers there (I won all the pitching categories by a wide margin last week, so no harm, no foul.)

But what do you guys think about throwing him out there against Los Dodgers today? The entire Dodgers lineup has historically good numbers against the guy, especially Manny, yikes: 13/29 with 4 HRs (though I have Manny on my team, so perhaps that's not a bad thing for me.

I'm currently in 7th place, top 6 make the playoffs, and I'm playing the guy in 6th place who is ahead of me by 1/2 game. I'm winning ERA and WHIP by scores of 1.227 to 3.229 and .995 to 1.274 respectively thanks to AJ Burnett, Wandy Rodriquez and Jarrod Washburn, but currently down in strikeouts 18 - 13 thanks to Jarrod Washburn.

Speaking of which. COME ON SEATTLE BULLPEN. That hurt. I'm currently lucky to have a 2-0 lead in wins, since my opponent had Nolasco going last night, but I had Leo Nunez who wound up getting the win.

I'd start him. He's been better at home than on the road and he just handled the Phillies.
