Which 2 SP do I keep?

Just to confirm - everyone in my post 3 posts from the bottom of the 1st page are my current keepers. Even the guys on the bench (I just specified bench to give you an idea of what our starter spots look like).

I'd go Luebke, Zimmerman a close 2nd, Sanchez a distant 3rd... just curious, why all the pitching love? What are your stats?

Ok so you're saying keep:

JJohnson (obvious)
Hanson (obvious)
Gallardo (obvious)
Wilson (obvious)
Zimmerman (obvious to me)
Anderson
Luebke
A Sanchez

and leave Floyd and Pomeranz on the outside?

The only guys I wasn't sure of were Luebke, Floyd and Pomeranz and maybe Anderson. But he's pretty good.

It's a points league with weekly starts and 2-start pitching during any week is pretty key. A ton of stats count for points though. For pitchers:

APP - Appearances 0 points
BBI - Walks Issued (Pitchers) -0.5 points
BS - Blown Saves -4 points
CG - Complete Games 3 points
ER - Earned Runs -1 point
HB - Hit Batsmen -0.5 points
HD - Holds 5 points
INN - Innings 1.2 points
K - Strikeouts (Pitcher) 1 point
L - Losses -4 points
NH - No-Hitters 5 points
PG - Perfect Games 5 points
PKO - Pick Offs 2 points
QS - Quality Starts 4 points
S - Saves 7 points
W - Wins 5 points
WP - Wild Pitches -0.5 points

Serious business.

For hitters:

1B - Singles 1.5 points
2B - Doubles 2 points
3B - Triples 3 points
BB - Walks (Batters) 1 point
CS - Caught Stealing -1 point
CYC - Hitting for the Cycle 3 points
E - Errors -3 points
GDP - Ground Into Double Plays -2 points
HP - Hit by Pitch 1 point
HR - Home Runs 4 points
KO - Strikeouts (Batter) -0.5 points
OFAST - OF Assists 1 point
R - Runs 1 point
RBI-HR - RBI Minus Home Runs 1 point
SB - Stolen Bases 2 points
SF - Sacrifice Flies 1 point

I'm not sure of any other league setup this way but it is a LOT of fun.

The biggest problem is the quality of pitchers available on the WW. If a couple of my guys go down (See: Johnson, Hanson, Zimmerman), then I need to have strong backups for them.

Am i correct then, you are keeping
Stubbs/Zimmerman/Norris/Minor?

Floyd isn't in the mix.
I like Luebke myself.
And given your 1B, Smoak.
But let others chime in.
Pomeranz is good, but i don't like the Coors factor.

Keeping Stubbs, keeping Zimmer, not keeping Norris or Minor unless someone convinces me to :P I love Minor's potential but again, that's all it is.

I can re-cap my definite keepers if ppl are confused.

I can drop Pomeranz for Smoak if that's the general concensus.

After all this hate for Floyd, I'm not keeping him either.

I like Norris myself.
A career 8.83 K/9.
Forget Pomeranz, Floyd, Minor.
I cut Anderson as well, since he throws too many breaking balls, it's why he's always hurt.
I don't know if that leaves room for Luebke, Smoak, and Norris.

Norris isn't bad, the problem is the team he plays on. Houston stinks and W's are going to be a little more difficult to come by. I'm hoping to redraft him though. It depends who's out there.

He's currently ranked 87 on Dobber's Top 150 Pitchers list :\

League in sig. I can keep 20. I'm only keeping 9 batters (1B through Util, 1 BENCH guy, no C). Everyone else is a SP or RP because it's basically king in this league.

There is a period before the draft where everyone needs to finalize their rosters, drop all the bums on their team etc. So my last spots are down to a few guys.

Based on the Top 150 Pitchers rankings here, I should be keeping Anderson no matter what (I think he's rated at 23). Even though he's not pitching until July at best and I can't put him on the DL until the season starts. If I drop him there's a chance I could re-draft him, but it's very small.

That leaves:

Pomeranz
Floyd
Luebke

Which 2 do you keep???

I'd keep Pomeranz and Luebke.
