So I play in a 10 team, H2H league, keeper, yahoo, 6X6. One of my fellow owners has a great pitching staff and just wants to win one category on offense (most likely steals) and win every week on pitching. I think I have a better offense and am considering just pitching my ace against him (and benching most pitchers) in an attempt to win one category (ERA, WHIP, BB/9) and then out hit him. Just wondering if that's a solid strategy? We have a minimum of 10 innings pitched per week. What would you do if you were going against him?
