The guy has had a 5.4 or so ERA since the all-star break last year. He has given up 7 HR in 5 starts, and pitches in Coor's. There is also talk of him being demoted. Is there any reason to hold onto to him in a dynasty league? I know he had promise, but is his promise worth waiting on?

The only thing making me keep him is that the next best starting pitcher on the waiver wire is Phil Humber and J.A. Happ. I like Humber's new found K numbers, but his ERA was even terrible in the minors. I see him as a flash in the pan. I truly think Happ could end up being a post-hype guy, but he will get limited wins and still have growing pains. Any other suggestions of really under the radar pitchers that might be availible (all top prospects are gone, and this would have to be more post hype guys or no hype guys).

Yeah. McDonald is gone. Was picked up about a week ago. I might go with Humber. Probably wait and see what he does tonight.

Jorge De La Rosa then if you want to take a flier

Good strikeout guy who was looking like he was figuring it out last year before he went down.

Haha. Someone picked him up last week as well. I didn't even realize it until I looked.
