Right now he is the best pitcher in the league and definitely a good person to have in your lineup. Someone may want to give up a proven vet for the best pitcher in the league, they may not. Personally, i'd rather have a proven vet putting up slightly weaker numbers than a one time sensation putting up the best numbers...but that's just me.
then why trade him?
So far, just a few nibbles.
Originally posted by uzlessI can't agree with that. As a manager of a real team I would, but in fantasy you stick with the hot hand, and its much more of a "what have you done for me lately" thing. I wouldn't trade him right now for any pitcher, not even webb at this point. I had a chance to see him pitch in person the other night at the phillies game, he is definitely the best starter to have right now.
