I don't like what your pitching looks like, but from a pure value standpoint this is a no-brainer. Upton for sure.

You can always trade again for a SP. You killed him on this, well done.

Agree with other two replies. Your pitching is worrisome, but this is a no brainer. You win big time.. Upton will put up tremendous numbers.

I mean I know that Im giving a top tier pitcher as they say. But Timmy has not been excellent, and with Carpenter whenever he does come back and Dempster coming back soon, I think I can compensate for no Tim.... no?

Nothing?

If Timmy comes back to his "old self" you might question it....but beyond this years stats...there have been trends in his numbers that suggest he is not the same pitcher.

I do this and run...stream extra pitching if necessary.

Little help on mine?
