Which pitcher to keep? Price or Felix

[c1turbo]

ERA, WHIP, QS, K, HR

David Price
or
Felix Hernandez

I've owned Price for 4 years now. Last year, I was able to draft Felix as someone dropped him. #1 pick because I was last place in 16 team league.

This year we changed 5 keepers to 2 (1 hitter, 1 pitcher).

Miguel Cabrera is my batter!!

Since its quality start, winning team doesn't matter much. So Felix has the Safeco advantage for less HR's.
David Price won the Cy young last year because he was so dominate. Watching him pitch he is just nasty like kershaw.
Should I switch to Felix or Price? Both divisions are difficult...Angels/Rangers Toronto/Yanks

Haha, but seriously, I think you should go with King Felix.
I just feel he's more reliable and should strikeout more batters than Price.

Felix is the better of the two regarding Strikeouts, plate appearances and ERA. I would keep him.

Very tough. They are practically the same pitcher. Both strike out about 8.5/9, walk about 2.5/9 and have an ERA around 3.00. Neither has much injury history and both at an age where we should see very little regression. One thing to note is that Felix's fastball has been in decline pretty much since his first pitch in the bigs. He started off at 96 and now is down to 92 (2011 was 93). Not real sure if that means something but it is kind of a red flag where as Price has been pretty steady at 95 the past three years.

Personally I would probably take Price. For some reason I still think he has some growth in him where as I feel Felix is pretty much who he is.

Felix is the better pitcher. Price is in the better situation. I would give the very small edge to Price.

Price by an ever so slight edge here. No wait, now I want King Felix.

Seriously, though there is no wrong answer, although gut reaction if both were on the board and I had 10 seconds to pick I think I go Price.

I dont think the fences coming in will effect Felix much at all, but who knows. They are too similar and nothing is changing for Price this year. i'd go with Price regardless though.

I agree that Price seems to have better potential for further growth, while Felix has reached his full potential. You won't go wrong wither way, but I would go with Price.

Why has Felix reached his potential?
He hasn't reached the peak years for pitchers.
His K/9 has increased for 6 straight years.

It's close, but i take Felix.
He allows 8% fewer FB career wise.
Give me the guy with the better GB/FB ratio over their career.
