does this trade harm my team's pitching too much?

Postby jovenparque » Tue May 22, 2012 6:15 pm

14 team mixed keeper daily 12x12
OFF: R, H, 2B, 3B, HR, RBI, SB, BB, K, GIDP, AVG, OPS
PIT: APP, IP, W, L, SV, H, HR, K, ERA, WHIP, K/BB, QS

our categories are so stupid... anyway, i got stanton and broxton and gave up josh johnson and morrow. does this hurt my pitching too much? my pitching was crap to begin with. i think if i stream enough pitchers (ignoring quality of pitcher mostly) i can win APP, IP, K, W, QS and pick up some other categories if i'm lucky. kind of relying on my offense to make up the difference.

PITCHING:
SP - josh johnson, morrow, hammel, mcdonald, norris, jerome williams, capuano, parker, ervin santana
RP - chapman, marshall, cashner

HITTING:
lucroy (C), agon (1B), kinsler (2B), matt carpenter/pedro alvarez (3B - DL longoria), lowrie (SS), fielder (CI), ryan roberts (MI), bruce (OF), hamilton (OF), bourn (OF), gerarod parra (OF), carlos pena (UT)

Good trade although it is going to cause some problems with your pitching staff. Anything on the WW? Maybe you can stream pitchers to make up for it.

yeah, going to stream pitchers (limited to 4 transactions a week unfortunately) and use two start pitchers to give myself a good chance at the counting categories. i doubt i'll beat any opponent through quality.

I would watch and grab Bauer soon if he's not already gone considering it's a keeper. He could provide for some decent starts come June and through the rest of the season. If he keeps throwing like he does then they will be forced to find a spot for him in the rotation once Miley and Saunders come back to earth.
