Should I just drop Brandon Webb?? I read that the D'back are now hoping he returns June 1, but who knows if that will happen. My pitching is weak enough to begin with, let alone stashing someone on the bench who won't pitch (I also have Lidge who is on my DL roster spot).

I would DEFINITELY rather hold onto Webb and slot him in my DL over Lidge. He offers a much higher reward, and comes with comparable risk. Webb is a bonafide ace, and if he comes back healthy he could be a huge difference-maker for your staff. The same cannot be said for Lidge.

After looking over his stats again I think you are right....could have been one of those decisions you look at in September and want to smack yourself. Would you drop Lidge or just hang tight?

Lidge isn't even guaranteed to get his job back once he returns from the DL... if you need the roster spot, I would drop him and place Webb on the DL.
