Trading Kershaw

[MilkSpiller22]

So I am in a 10 team standard 5X5 rotisserie league with WEEKLY lineup changes... We start 7 pitchers(RP are optional).

This is not a question on whether or not Kershaw will become Kershaw...

My problem is that I am 11 wins down and 11 saves down from first place and I have a 4.05 ERA and 1.32 WHIP... and in WHIP and ERA I am 3rd to last in both...


I am debating on going 2 start pitchers for now on so I can catch up in Wins and saves as I have Holland and Chapman... And if I do that I should be at least near first in Wins, saves, and Strikeouts, but will likely not improve too much in ERA and WHIP... and therefore what is the use of having the best pitcher in baseball?? so I would want to trade Kershaw...

my rotation is much better than it is pitching, but in a 10 team league I am worried that I dug too big of a whole in ERA and WHIP to catch up...

Should I stand pat and rely on my rotation or trade Kershaw and go 2 start for now on??

You can trade him, but don't even sell him for 99 cents on the dollar. People might think they can "buy low", but I wouldn't even think about it. Make sure you get value.

to get Kershaws numbers even half way close to his normal numbers, he will have to dominate plenty of games out of the 25 or so starts left. He won't end with regular Kershaw numbers but he also will not end with his current numbers.

Unless its Tommy John time.
