One storyline that has shocked me this season has been Patrick Corbin's return from the ashes, acting as one of the premier SP options over the last two months. However, his line last night of 4.1 IP, 8 ER, 11 Hits, 3 BBs, 3 Ks sure wasn't that as he faced...the Padres. Um, what? After having no issues with Coors, Corbin allowed 8 ER to the Padres. Right, that makes total sense. Velocty wasn't down, he ran into 6 ER in the fourth after getting two quick outs and 0-2 on the third batter. Then a bloop singled on a jam shot, a single on a Slider pushed to center, a walk, a broken bat single and a double down the line...it wasn't a game that made me think "wow, Corbin is terrible again." Keep starting him.
Let’s see how every other SP did yesterday:
Trying to figure out who you like more as a 2x SP next week– Stephenson or Woodruff?
I’d go Stephenson
Nelson is out. I need a pickup. I have Erod, Snell, Lamet, Dillon Peters and Gibson available. This is H2H points. I have 2 weeks left with a first week bye this week in the playoffs. It seems Lamet is best. Whatcha think?
Lamet!
Looks like Cole is no longer starting as he threw in yesterday’s game in relief. Any idea who to stream for today?
Good catch!
Plenty of terrible options? Do you really need to stream someone? It’s possible Colon does something productive against the Royals, or Erasmo Ramirez/Patrick Bridwell against each other, or A.J. Griffin against the Yanks. Really bad choices.
Just how good can Clevinger be? Does he carry over this performance to 2018 or is he just on a run?
Also, why aren’t people getting excited about this guy…. is this a case of just not believing the performance?
My league has 3 keepers so I was wondering if I should keep Nelson over Nola or do you think I should stay safe and just go with Nola if he finishes the season off strong
Man that’s close. If Nelson didn’t have this injury, I’d favor him, but I wonder if he’ll have his feel and velocity back when he returns next year.
I also wouldn’t want to keep either if it were your standard “keep 3 players, no restrictions, takes your first 3 picks in the draft” keeper league.
Clevinger is still an RP for me. He is so bad at getting deep into games and that is pretty important. Whats wrong with being an excellent RP?
Understand the perspective, but hasn’t gone 6 innings they’re games in a row?
