8/12-8/18 CHEERING - VENTING

My guess is that you aren't aware of how good Miley has been over the past 45 days or so.

He's been good but it has still come with limited K's...and the point isn't who has been better in the last 45 days, it's who's going to be better in the next 45 days...I'd probably take the upside in Gray as well considering you already have a good core group of starters so you can afford to gamble just a bit.

I guess I was just saying that Miley is rolling right now. Out of curiosity, what about Miley vs. haren vs. grey?

I probably like Haren just a smidge more than Miley...Haren has been rolling lately like Miley but he'll give you a few more K's in the process.

While we are at it, what about Haren vs Medlen?

While we are at it, what about Haren vs Medlen?

That's a close one...I'd probably still lean towards Haren though since he's been pitching well while Medlen hasn't been very consistant...also Haren will get you a few more K's.
