2013 Buy Low/Sell High thread

Was offered Samardjza for Chris Davis today. 6x6 roto with OPS/QS. I'm first in HR, RBI, AVG, OPS and SB but my pitching has been terrible. Am I getting good value here?

Ok, guys that own Bucholz. What're you doing with him? He's the best pitcher in baseball right now. I realize his 1.01 ERA and 0.96 WHIP won't stick but is 18 wins, 2.75 ERA 1.20 WHIP, & 180 strikeouts really that unrealistic at this point??

I would like to sell him, but only for the right deal, which is tough. Everyone knows he could've been had very cheap a month ago (late draft pick, WW material), so it's hard to get any real value for what he has done so far. I would be happy to get a top 20 OF for the team I have Buchholz on, but who knows. Until then, I'm just going to enjoy the ride.

I'm going to have to disagree. I think Buchholz is going to be one of the best pitchers in the AL. His control has been impeccable and he has employed the splitter to great success. I think he will continue to pitch excellently.

As expected, it's hard to get value for someone drafted late or was a WW pickup very early in the season. So let's just enjoy the ride.

No, I wouldn't do that deal..you could get a better/more proven pitcher for Davis at the moment.

What are peoples thoughts on RA Dickey? Trying to acquire a SP using Arenado or Frazier as bait.

buy low. David Price
fangraphs numbers will likely be update tomorrow with tonights horrible game, 9 ER, ouch!
but he has had bad luck this season.
the K are still there, 8.29 K/9. walks are low, 2.13 BB/9.
68.8 LOB%, .343 BABIP, 18.8 HR/FB.

Grabbed him for Ad. Gonz. today. Thoughts?

I would rather have Ad. Gonz personally

I strongly disagree, I think Price is a much better talent.

Depends on league cats but I don't see Price getting many wins on TB this year, even when he starts to dominate. I definitely see your side though.

probably could have bought price at a lower price.

5x5 h2h. Worst pitching in the league and I can (hopefully) replace his bat.
