If I'm going to draft half a season, I'll take Clemens 4 rounds later.NoPepperGameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17102033523562241216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6785794903916196345.post-8464487242575257802007-02-14T12:21:00.000-05:002007-02-14T12:21:00.000-05:00I'll try to do some real projections on both when ...I'll try to do some real projections on both when I have a little time, but my instinct is that in a 4*4 (but not 5*5) Lowe may be slightly more valuable...but a $9 price difference is pretty big, so I'd keep Patterson.Alexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00207020302976740521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6785794903916196345.post-50667951782289639142007-02-14T12:13:00.000-05:002007-02-14T12:13:00.000-05:00Curious as to how do you see Patterson compared to...Curious as to how do you see Patterson compared to Lowe in an NL-only 4 x 4 league? i can keep lowe ($14) or Patterson ($5). Since K's don't matter, Lowe was just about a top 5 pitcher last year in our league, right up there with zambrano and harang. Lowe will never have a high K/9 but his GB% usually makes up for that, and he's been consistently very good the last 2 years. <BR/>I really like Patterson, but when you disregard his K's (at least for fantasy points), consider his injury risk, as well as his low-projection Win total, is Lowe a better keeper?<BR/>Thanksflynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06396139513284886537noreply@blogger.com
