decent rotation?

Postby thuggis » Thu Jan 24, 2008 9:26 pm

Rookie owner question--any thoughts as to whether a 4-man rotation of Smoltz, Lowe, Myers, and Zito will get it done or whether I should invest more in my starting pitching? These fellas call Dolphins Stadium home.

Thanks!

Invest more, and go with a left strength bias as opposed to right.

Here is an example of my current Dolphins stadium team.
The team is 54 -21 at home.

And to those that have noticed, while all my links have been to my better teams, I' ll throw this one in as it is my worst 2007 team:

Thanks for the very helpful reply! There aren't many top starters left, but I at least managed to add another lefty (dropping Myers for Glavine). I'm still debating whether to drop D. Lowe for D. Willis or another lefty.

Myers is well suited for Dolphins stadium.
Lowe
Myers
Zito
Glavine

provides general coverage for opposing lineups

You do not need to necessarily go with lefties. Rather, go with pitchers that generally pitch better against lefties . (Right hand pitchers with a 1L+ rating etc.) Zito may be OK, as he is a reverse pitcher at 1R. Myers is OK. I do not like Smoltz for your park. I have had mixed results with Glavine and Willis, but they are worth consideration. Lowe is OK.

Thanks! I followed your advice and replaced Smoltz with Myers--he's probably the better match for Dolphins Stadium.
