Darvish + Liriano = High upside, high downside

I'm looking forward to games tonight where I have:
Darvish vs Tigers @ Texas
-and-
Liriano vs Brewers @ Pirates

The night could end horribly but has the potential to be hugely beneficial to all four SP categories.

The powerhouse Tigers offense had me seriously consider benching Darvish for his 1-start week in favor of J Teheran but the experts always say to never bench your Aces.

I'd be satisfied with 12 IP 6ER 18K 1.45WHIP

Anyone else have these two going on the same roster tonight? I feel for you.


Cheers!

I've got them both starting for my Ultimate Auction squad. So far, so crappy.

any thoughts of sitting Darvish are lunacy in my humble opinion.

as a Verlander owner I hope that looks stupid later.

like I said, Verlander was a high-risk start tonight

Verlander lit up -- 7 runs in 2 2/3 - 71 pitches - 2 bases loaded walks... so much for the pitching vaunted pitching matchup...

And to think I got similar production outta Joe "Blows" Blanton earlier this week, my 25th round pick. 8 EArnies for Verlander, a high round pick v 7earnies for Blanton.

Doesn't take a rocket scientist to see I got tremendous, "value." Huh, this fantasy baseball is a piece-a-cake! (rolls eyes).
