Liriano or Heilman

I have to drop one of them once Sheets comes back from the DL. Who do you think has the best chance of stepping up into the rotation?

Keep Liriano. Heilman won't be in the rotation, unless he gets traded. Liriano's a better prospect too.

Yeah, Bannister looked pretty good for the Mets the other day, so Heilman is probably not going to see much time in the rotation. I believe Bannister had a no hitter going into the 6th, but then the bottom dropped out.

Thanks, I was thinking the same, although I think Heilman's chances of getting traded are better, Liriano has a better chance to break into the Twins rotation than Heilman in the Mets. I am just pissed that I picked up too much starting pitching in the draft, although I love all my starters:

 

Sheets

Harden

Patterson

Lackey

Escobar

Young

 

Liriano

Heilman

 

Unfortunately, I dont think anyone in my league knows how good some of these guys are going to be so I can't trade any of them.

I didn't know anything about Chris Young before he got traded to San Diego. I watched him pitch against the Cubs in Las Vegas. Holy crap, that guy is huge. Now there is a guy who shouldn't feel threatened to pitch inside to ANYONE.

That's because he was in Texas, and it seems like all of the Rangers' pitchers get overlooked. He's got good control, but he'll give up quite a few HRs too (partially because of Ameriquest field).

He shouldn't give up nearly as many in Petco.
