Finals Rotation

[TKOSpikes]

Scherzer @Minn

Or

Carrasco @Hou

Scherzer has been "struggling" lately, throwing lots of pitches and struggling to get deep into games. Carrasco has been on fire.

Kershaw twice, Wheeler twice and Sale round it out for me.

 

[Yellow Fuzzies]

Stick with the ace- Scherzer

 

[Philabuster5]

I agree

 

[da55bums]

stick with Max...your rotation is so insaine already it would be tough to hurt it.

What about closer?

Street has been my boy from the start (with Jansen), but is currently battling a hamstring. Drew Storen is available, but our rules would force me to drop Street. Lineups lock Saturday and Street is "due back" Friday, so maybe he'll pitch and I can make up my mind then. My opponent has Reed, so he could pick Street up if I drop him, and wouldn't that suck if it came back to bite me! Although, I wonder if he's thinking of adding Storen himself?

....I'm over thinking...

Street has seven home games: Hou (2), Sea (4), Tex (1)
Storen has seven road games: NYM (2), Atl (3), Mia (2)

And while we're at it, might as well talk OF.

We start four.
Yelich
Hamilton, B. (struggling, but his splits favor him next week on the road)
JD Martinez
De Aza (shuffling here)...

...between Chris Young (on fire, just added), and Parra (splits favor him as well, but PT isn't assured with Gomez back and K Davis coming back this weekend)

Speaking of add/drop, just dropped Chris Davis... best options to replace him (1b, DH, or C) weren't much, chose Rosario over Logan Morrison, Endy Chavez and Ike Davis.

 

[TKOSpikes]

Well, Street didn't pitch Friday, so I either go in blind with Street or drop him for Storen. What are the odds they go back to Soriano?

Tough call....I'll be sweating until 2:00

 

[TKOSpikes]

Hmmmm.... or Mujica? Just noticed him out there. He just pitched back to back games, so he's probably unavailable tonight.

Help!! 3 hours until lineups lock!

 

[TKOSpikes]

Mujica was picked up...

I went with Storen. Here's hoping the Angels keep smashing the ball and winning with big leads!

 

[TKOSpikes]

Gad dommit!

 

[da55bums]

the team that beat me had De Aza and Storen going...the numbers I saw worked pretty damn good...he has Santana and Vargas from MIN too...he is rolling right now...


De Aza might be the fantasy post season MVP and was CRAP (as well as available) most of the season.


Would have said something sooner...didn't look.

 

[TKOSpikes]

I pulled it off despite Carrasco's gem on the bench! Two out of three years now! Kershaw in both years.
