I would keep Werth...

 

[Doctor Detroit]

If it's a redraft you have enough pitching, I'd keep Werth also.

 

[cosjobs]

No. Do not trade Werth for Price.

The way BJ Upton is batting I'd say Werth is his current starter unless he needs some end of the week steals a/o Werth has a matchup vs. a tough rightie. Werth = under valued, Price = over valued. If Price has a couple of bad turns to start (he's not been doing well in the minors) and he's still with the big league club see if you can buy him for Asdrubal or Helton. Besides, starting pitching isn't an issue on this team right now, relief pitching is, to a lesser degree power. Ridding of Werth makes the power situation worse.

NO WAY

You (and hundreds of others) need to temper your expectations for Price

Just as one example - take a look at Kris Medlen's stats from AAA this year - FAR superior to Price (and better than Hanson who is also WAY ahead of Price vs AAA hitters) - and then look at his first outing.

You can't think that Price will put up the numbers he had last year starting every five games.

In a league that shallow you have tons of other pitching options that cost you nothing
