Lackey or Peavy?

Postby VikingGuy84 » Wed Jun 02, 2010 11:32 pm

Who do you think has a better rest of the season? I have Peavy and of course I'm frustrated with him. Another owner has Lackey and he's frustrated with him. He's offered the swap. This is a Yahoo, 10-team, keeper league.

I get: J. Lackey
I give: J. Peavy

WHIR, as always!

Not much downside here frankly. They might end up with simiilar stats but Lackey likely gets more wins. I'd do it; you won't get hosed certainly

IMO Peavy has more upside if he can turn it around, but for every one step he takes forward he takes two steps back.

Lackey hasn't pitched great but still is getting wins because of the team he pitches for, so I would probably agree with the above post and go with Lackey.

To add to the above, I also agree that you won't get hurt either way.

I'd take Lackey. Both are struggling with new teams, and I think Peavy might have a little more upside, but not much, and Lackey will get some wins even if he's struggling. The one thing to keep in mind is Boston's tendency to shut down each starter for about a month each year (currently it's Beckett's turn).

Help with mine:
