2014 Fantasy Baseball Roster Moves Discussion Thread
I have a dilemma on my hands. I currently have Chris Archer holding down the last spot on my roster, but I could drop him and pick up AJ Burnett or Yordano Ventura.
Who would you take of those 3?

Archer all day, especially if you are in a re-draft league. He probably has the best slider among SP in MLB and a mid-90s fastball. He's incredibly intelligent. He has great athleticism. He has a fantastic defense behind him (though so does Yordano) and plays in a very pitcher-friendly park that will both contribute to keeping his WHIP and ERA down. He's the most likely of the bunch to help you in the W column too.mikechamp wrote:I have a dilemma on my hands.

Ventura is a very small-framed pitcher. Injury and durability would worry me with him, and would temper my enthusiasm for his stuff.
Burnett is on a train-wreck team with a lousy defense behind him. Avoid.

No keepers. If your league is keeper or dynasty I might roll with Yordano.

Yeah, I run a re-draft league.

Then especially Archer. There's also the question of innings/starts this year. Arch will get you more of both, barring injury.

im always hazy on how the waiver wire rules are and this is the 2nd time this year already ive put a request in but because someone else is higher on the list they can pick the player over me.
