i am superstitious about starting pitchers on monday night. i bet if you ran the statistics you'd find all pitchers fare the worst on monday night. my theory is it's the umpires that have to catch a flight out of town for the next game or something. smaller strikezone. as opposed to saturday and sunday when the games start earlier and you have more time. so monday bad, but sat and sunday good. ..also good players always shine on the weekend. there were guys like Edgar Renteria that always played good on the weekend.
starting pitchers on mondays sucks. if you do weekly lineups you pray the 2nd start makes it up. if you do daily and you start a pitcher monday night and he blows up you deserve it. if he pitches well you got lucky. and then when he pitches lights out sat and sunday, ..well that's expected. heh
DON'T PITCH YOUR PITCHERS MONDAY NIGHT!!
ps. tuesday and sunday 2 start weeks are ok

The recent injury scare for Degrom has his owner shopping him to see if he can get full value in return. He is looking for me to give Kluber or Sale plus another significant piece, like a cheap Jose Leclerc or a top prospect. Both Sale and Kluber have their own issues so far, but I'm hesitant to give one of them plus another significant player for Degrom after his scare. Am I nuts? I love Degrom. He helped me win b2b titles. But is he, right now, worth Sale or Kluber plus a cheap Leclerc or a prospect such as Carter Kieboom in a keeper league? None if the aces are at keeper prices.

I think Kieboom should net you a pretty significant piece by himself. He would obviously need to be traded to a dumper and I do not believe that is what is happening here.

Originally posted by revo View PostAgreed. If both of them would rather have the other, then a straight-up swap is fine. But including a closer or a top prospect like Kieboom is crazy talk.

i'd view deGrom as a late 1st rd pick and Sale as a mid to late 2nd pick and Kluber as a early to mid 3rd. i worry a little about Kluber being a little older. he'll still get you more wins but deGrom is on a better Mets team this year, until they face a lefty. if i could include a closer i could afford to give up with Kluber i'd do it

Originally posted by The Dane View PostI hope you're right. Most years, when I'm targeting an Ace at draft, I try to identify one who may drift to the bottom of the top tier. I thought Thor was getting overshadowed by deGrom's Cy Young year and could be had a few dollars less than the other aces. I was right. He was a few dollars cheaper to be had than I expected and I ended up with several shares of him. He's killing me. I'm starting to think he might be the most over-hyped SP in baseball. And I bit.
