Cliff Lee for Hunter Pence and Clayton Kershaw?

Postby dracovonborax » Tue Mar 09, 2010 12:44 pm

would you make this move. i'm in a keeper league and the Lee owner is short on good keepers. he isn't a fan of Lee and might move him. I am already planning on throwing Pence back out in the draft and was going to keep Kershaw at $9. Lee would only cost me $11 if i make the deal. i know the board here has Lee 10 spots above Kershaw so i was thinking it would be a good move. also, Kershaw is on his 1st yr as a keeper whereas Lee would be in his 2nd.. with a max 3 yrs able to be kept for either. from what i've read here, people are big on Kershaw but i worry about his consistency... and with Safeco and that D behind Lee, i figure he'll be big. any help would be appreciated. thank you.

Hmmmm so basically it's just Lee for Kershaw. Here's how I see it. Kershaw showed HUGE improvement in the second half last year. Cut his walk rate down, his K rate up and I believe was 9-1 in his last 12 starts or so. He plays on a team with good offense. I think the kicker for me is you get to keep him for an extra year more than Lee and you save a couple bucks. I'd go with Kershaw.

Help?
