  • starter for closer

    I am getting close to the innings max and need saves.

    I have 262 innings left max and seem to be eating them at a decent rate (or is that still a lot left) - I have 7 regular starters

    I am looking to move a starter for a closer
    I offered Stauffer for League and he countered with Kennedy for Hanrahan

    Please rank my starters - wins first - era - ratio - Ks last
    Kennedy
    Shields
    Carpenter
    Masterson
    Bumgarner
    Masterson
    Stauffer


    and his closers

    Salas - Is he still holding up?
    Hanrahan - will the pirates win another game?
    League - will seattle win a game?
    Fuentes? what happened?
    Robertson? - I guess that Rivera guy is closing


    and what would be a happy medium - or rather a better deal for me?

    Kennedy for Hanrahan or League is fair. I'd give any of your starters for either of them. You need to move a starter...don't split hairs over which one it is.

    Re: Fuentes, Bailey came back and was given his job back.

      Hammer is the guy you want, League would be a fine consolation prize.

      I'd rank your guys:
      MadBum
      Sheilds
      Carpenter
      IPK
      Stauffer
      Masterson

      I would only trade MadBum or Shields for Hammer. The rest are fine for League.

        He wants Kennedy for Hanrahan but is thinking about it.


        How many innings will those 6 starters have in the rest of the season?
        I have no idea how to make an educated guess.

          There's about 57-58 games left. A regular turn in the rotation would probably get you 12-13 starts. At 6.5 IP per start, 1 of those guys would get ~80 innings.

          I'd do IPK for Hammer in a heartbeat.

            I was offered gregg for carpenter
            seems too little

            do I want
            Bailey or Putz for carpenter or either

            or should I try kennedy for hanrahan again?

              I'd give the Kennedy for Hanrahan another go if not I'd trade Carpenter for Putz.

                Agreed on Kennedy for Hanrahan, but I'm a little leery on Putz (not least because I own him). If you can't do Kennedy for Hanrahan, I'd offer Stauffer or Masterson for Salas.

                  This is where I land, too.
