Fantasy Land: Where Would You Rank This Fantasy Rotation In All Of Baseball

just for fun.

Dickey
Sale
Peavy
Danks
Quintana/Santiago

Has the upside to be the best or second best rotation in baseball, depending on what the Rays/Rangers do.

The issue I have is with Dickey, because he's old and it's difficult to predict what his knuckle ball will do from here on out.

Usual injury/fatigue/attrition caveats apply for the rest of the staff...

It's top 10, maybe top 5 just off feel.

 

[MRubio52]

To further clarify, if everything breaks right with the rotation, Dickey is solid, Peavy and Sale give you 400 combined IP, and Danks is healthy and average for the year, it's the best rotation in baseball. If they hit what they are projected to hit, or are likely to hit, it's top 10, maybe top 5.

 

[DewsSox79]

I agree. Its all about danks' injury recovery and dickeys knuckler.

I think another key is if the team have someone that can consistently catch the knuckleball

My fantasy land rotation would be:
Sale
Sanchez/Lohse
Peavy
Danks
Quintana

Thats pretty good. id rather give the ball to peavy as the #2 though imo.

also I think it wouldnt be too hard to find a catcher who can catch the knuckleball. lol. unreal.

 

[BigSoxHurt35]

Well if we give Lohse or Sanchez big money they gota be 2. IMO

 

[BigSoxHurt35]

Would love to see us sign Josh Hamilton or package Viciedo, Floyd and other prospects for Justin Upton. Put in Beckham too. He can't hit to save his life
