Which pitcher do you like better (1 Viewer)

Which one do you like for a 14 team H2H league?

Is Livan Hernandez worth a roster spot at this point? OR Villanueva for an extra RP.

I have any extra bat I am most likely going to drop(Barton) and thought the extra pitcher wouldn't be a bad idea.

Thoughts?

Lee

Oswalt

I would probably go with Villanueva. He's a guy you could slot in on days when your SPs aren't playing. His K/9 is going to be much better than the other guys you mentioned. There's also the possibility he'll get SV opportunities if Hoffman's fastball gets slower than his change.

Livan and Robertson are long-time WHIP killers. I don't trust them enough to believe their small sample 2010 results. Lohse and Huff don't strike people out. I think Huff may have some longer term upside (Disclaimer: I own Huff in a dynasty) but I'd probably choose Lohse over him in a single season league.

I'd definitely go w/ Villanueva then. He has SP/RP eligibility in Yahoo, which is a significant factor given your league's roster requirements.

I don't think any of those guys are worth a roster spot, Silva too...and the first opportunity you get to drop Blackburn do that too.

In a H2H solid middle relievers are far less valuable, so I don't think Villanueva is the answer either.

For now, I'd stream based on matchups and start taking fliers on young guys with upside instead of older guys we already know suck like Silva and Livian.

If I had to name one, and only one, of the guys mentioned so far it'd be Lohse but if he's the best you've found I'd keep digging.
