Fergie is my favorite 70's starter, and I'm in Veterans, but the other 3 teams in my division are all Fenway....do I try to trade Fergie or keep him....I also have Tiant, who also can give up a lot of HRs...my other starters are S. McDowell, and Kaat..the rest of the league is mostly pitcher parks...Do I look to trade any of these guys, and if so who would be the best options...

latertaters,

I pitch Fergie regularly in Fulton and Wrigley. Even though he gives up a good number of HRs he keeps his WHIP low so that fewer runs are given up. Not to mention he'll get plenty of K's against the free swingers. I would bet you'll have much worse luck with Tiant than Fergie. Fergie is too good a frontline guy IMO to give up.

Should be a fun league as I've not played in one with as many pitcher's parks as this. Even scarier is that I got all but 3 players I tried to draft so it could be a long year! Good Luck!!
