Drop Kuroda for Romero?

Postby jarobert » Fri Apr 16, 2010 3:22 pm

10 Man Roto league that has an extra pitching category for k/9.

On the surface Kuroda has had 2 good starts but he's been giving up a lot of hits. I don't really trust him and he's been on my bench.

Should I drop him for Romero's upside?

The rest of my staff is: Greinke, Wainwright, Billingsley, Liriano, and Price. Hughes on the Bench.

I've never been a Kuroda fan - his K Rate is pretty unimpressive and he's an injury risk. Romero strikes me as having more upside - I'd rather own Romero than Kuroda FWIW

Also on the WW are Shawn Marcum and Andy Pettite. Either of these guys preferred to Romero?

I'd grab Marcum over Romero... but Romero deserves a flier too. I agree that both of them would be better options than Kuroda.
