Postby waltb87 » Sun May 30, 2010 2:24 am

I have a few guys that are on the WW and on are on my roster that I have questions about, so are these guys keepable or in too deep to recover from their bad starts:

Jake Peavy?...once wow, now wow...a bad wow, ERA over 6
Javier Vazquez?...terrible starts, ERA over 6 as well
Lance Berkman...hes on the WW
John Lackey...i am very questionable about him
Raul Ibanez...eh..
Brian Fuentes...kind of off and on..

Team B - ESPN FBaseball - Standard stats, Rotisserie, 10 teams

C- Victor Martinez
1B- Albert Pujols
2B- Dan Uggla
3B - Kevin Youkilis
SS- Alexei Ramirez
OF - Matt Holliday , Jayson Werth, Raul Ibanez, Alfonso Soriano, Austin Jackson
UTIL - Ryan Howard, David Ortiz

SP - Chris Carpenter, Javy Vazquez, John Lackey, Jake Peavy, Zack Greinke, Roy Oswalt
RP - Matt Capps, Andrew Bailey, Alfredo Simon

want Fuentes; can cut Simon
normally I'd say want Berkman but you don't have a spot for him
I don't see Ibanez turning it around but it depends how many OF you start

I'd definitely cut Simon for Fuentes. I think Berkman should be owned too. I think you need to cut one of your 3 SP's that are killing you. Take your pick, on which one to cut. I didn't like any of them coming into the year, but I think Peavy is probably the one you don't want. At least the other 2 play for good teams, and should get Wins even if they don't pitch great. I'd then try and trade Ortiz for another SP, then you can play Berkman at Util.
