In my H2H each category league championship. I have a strong advantage in 4 out six offensive categories and a slight advantage in 1. We have the standard 5 pitching categories and, as things look right now, I have a slight advantage in K's and my opponent has a slight advantage in W's and Saves. All the other categories are a toss up. My thought is that after tomorrow night's games, I will drop at least 4 of my starters (who don't have any starts the rest of championship week) and pick up 4 SPs in the hope of securing W's and K's. Now, it's possible that my opponent will do the same, but I hope to beat him to the wire right after lineup locks tomorrow. Bottom line -- I'm looking for pitchers who have a good chance of winning. BBM has the following Win chance associated with these 5 pitchers below (listed in the order that I thought there chance of winning would be - highest to lowest). I was suprised to see that BBM was so high on Petit winning against Cashner. I really love what Petit has done, but do you think he has a better chance of winning vs the other 4 listed?

Hammel vPHI (Buchanan) .413

Archer vCHW (Noesi) .419

Minor vNYM (Niese) .414

Salazar @HOU (Feldman)  .389

Petit @SD (Cashner) .462

Yes SF is a good team.

Petit get a boost because SD is so bad. The idea of grabbing the 4 starters when available makes sense to me.

Safe to assume no SV on the wire? Just going the RP route could win you 3/5 cats (SV, ERA, WHIP).

Like the idea Matt but, unfortunately our league has only 4 RP slots which are all filled by both me and my opponent. One thought might be to use a SP eligible RP like W. Davis or A. Sanchez. Which of these 2 do you think might have the best chance at grabbing a save between Thursday and Sunday?

Neither is completely likely but Sanchez more so with Holland back for KC.
