Re: Like my fantasy baseball team??? thanks for the vote of confidence...we shall see how it goes I want the bragging rights! Shut my friend up!
Re: Like my fantasy baseball team??? It's an OK team. Not anything special. Utley in the 2nd round is pretty good. Your pitching staff is fragile as hell. Beckett's always solid. Verlander and Myers are as unreliable as they come. Good luck.
Re: Like my fantasy baseball team??? I think your team is pretty decent. Great INF, average OF, really crappy pitching but I assume your strategy is to be streaming some guys and find FA pickups. Utley was a good pick and I think Fielder was a great value in the third. I don't like Cabrera in the first. After Hanley, Pujols, and Reyes (b/c he can pretty much win steals and runs for you), I would have gone with Lincecum. Wright and Cabrera are too similar in numbers to a good second round pick; I'd rather get the most dominant pitcher out there. He could have covered up some of Meyers or Verlanders crappy games.

Re: Should I trade Verlander for Max Scherzer?!? ...I wouldn't do it, Verlander will be just fine as opposed to the unproven kid.
Why the heck was my thread merged? There was actually a point to me putting it in a different thread...So people would see it was a new question and I would get quicker responses to a time sensitive question. OT forum isnt a big deal, you should have just let it gone
I have Scherzer on one of my teams but I'm not a big fan. I really don't like Verlander, though. He IMO will never put "it" together and become that reliable #1 starter that strikes out a ton of people like he should. Even in his real good season a couple of years ago he still got shellacked a few too many times for my liking. I would package him with one of your OF and try and get an elite player there. Like Lee + Verlander = Manny? Braun? Holliday? Something better than Lee and again, Verlander isn't worth much to me.
lol, I was actually considering bumping this thread because Verlander has been so damn good the last two months. In first place in all 3 of my leagues so i think it's still good advice.
