How legit is Kluber going forward? In a keeper league with only 2 pitchers kept each year and currently have Darvish and Strasburg, but wondering what to do with Kluber considering how dominant his season has been so far. Stras has had a disappointing year but still has big name value I could use in a trade to upgrade my bats. Would you guys be comfortable keeping Kluber over a pitcher like Strasburg? What do you project for him in future years?

Probably can't go wrong with any of the three but I would probably be inclined to keep darvish and Strasburg but all three are top tier fantasy options for next year

I'd go with Strasburg and Darvish too with the assumption they will both rebound next season. Just looking at Kluber's stats, we would likely enter next season projecting a higher hit-rate, hr-rate, and bb-rate. In all likelihood, he would be projected lower than the other two. He doesn't have enough of a track record, and he was not considered a potential ace entering the season.

I would definitely try to move one of the three for a bat though. Can't go wrong with any 2 of them going into next season.

As I noted on his player page, Kluber's revised repertoire, including two seamers and cutters, has really advanced him as a pitcher this year. I'm not sure his trade value has caught up to his real value... Siera, xfip now off the charts, though as ken says only a single season sample. my gut would be to see what you can get for darvish or Strasburg, and who gets best trade value relative to their keeper value

I figured it would be past the trade deadline by now
