Will this balance out?
Posted by rpg37 on 4/21 at 11:46 am
I am in a league where I am ranked in the top three in all 10 catagories, but next to last in Ks. My pitching staff is undeniably the best, but they are not getting the Ks this season. Is this normal or is there reason to believe this won't be a slam dunk of a win season's end?

Roy Halladay
Clayton Kershaw
Matt Cain
Madison Bumgarner
Brandon Beachy
Jordan Zimmermann/Yu Darvish
Jose Valverde
JJ Putz
Grant Balfour
Frank Francisco

You should be fine. You can't be that far back

No. Trade Halladay for Jason Hammel. Hammel is the better strikeout pitcher this year.

I am considering trading one. My WHIP and ERA is so far ahead, I have considered trading one of the top ones for another good hitter. Out of curiosity, would a trade Halladay for a Justin Upton be far fetched?

My offense is:

C - Mauer and Molina
1B - Cuddyer and Young
2B - Zobrist and Ackley
SS - Rollins and Jeter
3B - Ramirez and Beltre
OF - Jennings, Chris Young, Austin Jackson/Alex Gordon, Matt Holliday, Hunter Pence

Bench: Billy Butler, Jose Altuve, AJ Pierzynski, and a few others.

I'm sitting at 102 and three have over 120. I project based on the last three years of the league that I need 1380 to compete to win. Tomorrow marks the 10% point of the season I am not near projection. They look good, granted, but a lot of contact. I was just wondering if Ks generally start coming more in the next cycles as the velocity of pitchers begins to pick back up.

Dude, patience... it'll get there. All it takes is one dominant start and you have a lot of dominant pitchers to make up ground.

Is this an 8 team league or a whole bunch of guys that can't draft?

If I'm going to nitpick at it, I guess you could use another power bat.

10-team league. Auction style keeper league. I know I owned my draft, just want domination.
