Championship Week- Need a P?

Postby outsideoftime » Sat Sep 19, 2009 11:26 am

H2H Yahoo 12 team league.

Going into the semi finals I saw my opponent was weak on pitching and strong on hitting and stealing so I dropped Barry Zito to add Raul Ibanez (who hit free agency during his cold spell) and dropped Jason Kubel for Rajai Davis. I'm winning 9-1 in the semi finals so far.

(SIDE NOTE: Gavin Floyd is injured and will miss this next week so I dropped him already for Barry Zito again)

So I started looking into next week. In the Championship week the guy inning 7-2 has super strong pitching (Haren, Lincecum, Lee, De la Rosa, Saunders, Arroyo, Sabathia) but lite hitting.

Should I drop Ibanez for a pitcher? Should I drop Alexei Ramirez for a pitcher as well as I won't use him this week?

I would drop Ibanez for Bucholz for sure and I might even drop Ramirez for Pedro

Get Pedro and Buchholz. Do you need three closers? If you're not willing to sacrifice one of your hitters for the extra pickup, maybe drop a closer and risk punting saves?
