Drop Parra for Masterson or Gio Gonzo?

Postby slick56 » Wed Aug 05, 2009 1:47 pm

I been using Parra as a back end SP for my team, he has been ok since he has been back but nothing matching his talent level. I have a ton of pitching, i like to put in 2 start guys and have many options.Gio Gonzalez and Masterson is on the waiver wire and he is joining the Cle rotation. He is eligible at RP which is a plus. My league we start 6 SP 3 RP 14 team league so RPs are thin. I do have JP Howell, Lidge and Soria as my RPs so takin one of those guys out for Masterson when the matchup is right wouldnt be a bad move, but who? Howell is my guess.
So pick up Masterson or drop Parra? or Grab Gio Gonzalez drop Parra?

Gio Gonzo just pitched an outstanding game against the texas rangers this past Tuesday. I might take my chances with Gio Gonzo over Parra. I was think of picking up Gio myself. He has great upside and is just 23 years old. I would take Gio over Parra.

the upside of masterson and gio are great, but i think i would go with Gio simply because Masterson is going to have some growing pains (both will, but i think Masterson will have more) because of the conversion from RP to SP, plus Gio has a little high end ERA, but also has 50 Ks in 42 IP nice ratios... id go with Gonzo over the Master...

help me out...
