Who has more upside: Burhle or Slowley? WHIR

Postby LUISAO » Sat Apr 03, 2010 10:45 pm

I have Burhle, because i think he is safer; # 1 Sp on his team, that seems to be the favorite to win its division.

But can Slowley be more productive in a 5X5 H2H League?

Slowey has improved drastically and is quite the pitcher. I'd go with him personally.
12 team, H2H, 6x6

Team:
C-Doumit
1B-Pujols
2B-Wigginton
3B-Polanco
SS-Reyes
OF-Granderson, Willingham, Ad. Jones
Util-Butler
BN-Kendrick, Furcal, Stanton

SP-Greinke, Kershaw
RP-Rivera, Gregg
P-Hughes, Clippard, Thornton, Dempster
BN-Billingsley, Leake

Definitely Slowey. Its not close really. Buerhle doesn't strike anyone out.

Slowley is the way to go. Their line up is more potent and as has been stated, Burhle doesn't strike people out.

I agree with the rest of the posts that Slowey definitely has a bigger upside. However, it is just that upside. But as as a psychologist (and mediocre fantasy mgr), I always say that the best predictor of future behavior is past behavior. So using that standard you'd have to go with Buerhle.

Any thoughts on this situation? Thanks viewtopic.php?t=406413
