~Starting Pitcher Help~ Need Some Good Insight...{Wh!r}

[etl1692]

Just acquired Justin Upton for my Tim Lincecum, which I am very excited about! Now its time to shop for a pitcher that obviously wont fill Timmys shoes, but definitely make up for some of the loss. I am looking to try and bait Trout, or Harper. And willing to trade Gardner as well..... These are some of the pitchers I have my eye on.

Tommy Hanson
Brandon Beachy
Jaime Garcia
C.J. Wilson
Anibal Sanchez
Josh Johnson
Adam Wainwright
Jeremy Hellickson
Jordan Zimmerman
Matt GArza

Now I have no idea the real value of Harper or Trout, and I guess right now no one does thus far, just a lot of hype. Remember I am proposing the trade, so those guys are just ideas. Some may be too good for what I have to offer, so dont just give me the best guy up there and say him. I need compatable trade ideas. If I have missed anyone please point it out.... Willing to trade Gardner, Harper, Trout LEAVE A LINK I WILL HELP

Also not sure if it will help, but I could throw in Scherzer as well. He has been sucking!

I think you're shooting a tier too high on those pitchers. I wouldn't give up any of those arms for the hype of those prospects. Go for a couple lesser arms than that, but maybe send a few deals out for those pitchers and see if any of those owners are willing to pay for the hype, hopefully you'll get lucky.

If Im shooting too high, which tier/pitchers am I looking for?

[bayside]

I would send out offers for Wainwright and JJ just because theyve struggled so much so far. See where the owners are at on them and then maybe add a little more or try for a lesser pitcher.
I would think Garcia, Hellickson, Zimm, and Sanchez are realistic targets for any owner that needs OF help, especially in a keeper league.
Hanson, Garza, Beachy, CJ are not going to happen.

There is no one this is answerable without knowing if its a keeper or not.


Keeper I think you can shoot for the better arms you listed like CJ/Beachy. In a non-keeper, I would be happy with JJ. Waino shouldn't be pitching right now, so I would only really give up Gardner for him.
