I was at the game last night and saw Ruf (whom I must admit I hadn’t heard of until your mention yesterday) and he looks legit.

Have to say it felt mighty strange to drop Verlander for Koji Uehara yesterday. Such is the odd nature of a redraft H2H finals round where both teams are over the start limit.. Only relief pitchers can rack up stats.

Thanks for your good advice this season, Brad. I’m currently leading my money league 11-0-1 with two days remaining. Your timely tips and knowledgable banter were very helpful, and I only wish I’d found this site sooner; it might have kept me from drafting Michael Pineda in the 5th round.

Are you planning any mock drafts for 2013?

Well, I’m not planning any at this time, but they’ll happen.

Looking for some quick help in my roto league:

If you needed help in Ks to maintain a lead but could potentially lose points in WHIP, would you pitch Carpenter tonight vs. The Reds?
He hasn’t looked that sharp in his two starts vs. the Cubs and Astros but historically he has pitched well against the Reds. 

My decision would be a lot easier if I could see my lead in WHIP but yahoo doesn’t show beyond the hundredth decimal point.

Based on what you posted, no. Carp will probably throw 4-6 innings with about 3 K. And unless your WHIP is very high (think 1.35+), starting Carp is likely to take you backwards.

That said, I could imagine conditions where you have to start him anyway and hope for the best.
