So my team,
Hardball Dynasty – Fantasy Baseball Sim Games - Baltimore Kraken Franchise Profile, actually made the playoffs despite trying really hard not to.
I'm now stuck with trying to set my rotation.
My best pitcher,
Hardball Dynasty – Fantasy Baseball Sim Games - Player Profile: Damaso Zapata, is at 88(100), so he will start game 2 and I will endeavor to get him as many starts as possible.
My other consistently good pitcher,
Hardball Dynasty – Fantasy Baseball Sim Games - Player Profile: Andres Nieves, is at 61(71) and with his 8 Dur, I'm thinking a game 4 start and slotting him in whenever his % allows it.
So I need a game 1 and game 3 starter. Here are the guys who started games for me this year
Hardball Dynasty – Fantasy Baseball Sim Games - Player Profile: Harry Osbourne
Hardball Dynasty – Fantasy Baseball Sim Games - Player Profile: Victor Marquez
Hardball Dynasty – Fantasy Baseball Sim Games - Player Profile: Hunter Durham
Hardball Dynasty – Fantasy Baseball Sim Games - Player Profile: Ismael Suarez
Hardball Dynasty – Fantasy Baseball Sim Games - Player Profile: Turk Langford
On paper, I think Osbourne is the best of them. He was also a somewhat expesnive FA, so I feel like I should use him. That being said, his numbers this year are terrible and he's at 65(87) so he can't pitch game 1.
My thought was to start Marquez game 1. I know he pitched above his ratings this year, but he has been effective and I don't think anyone else's ratings are much better. I think Durham is the only other option. I think Suarez and Langford should stay in the pen.
So, my thought was:
Game 1: Marquez with a short leash
Game 2: Zapata
Game 3: Osbourne with a short leash
Game 4: Nieves
Game 5: Zapata (hopefully)
If someone has a better idea, please let me know :)
