New houser or Kluber?

Decisions, decisions. Who did you pick and how are they doing?
-
Go with Rickey

Kluber, I have both of them, Kluber is 1000 times better. (Newhouser is good, just not on Klubers level)

I don't know, dude. I only have a one-game sample size, but that fastball can hit 101. Mix in how hard it is to get on a fastball atm, and he can be gold. Mix in that wicked slow offspeed stuff, and you can really have someone in the rocking chair from the get-go.

Yeah, Newhouser is great, not trashing on him, he's elite.
But Kluber has been on another level for me.Newhouser > 77.1 innings, 3.96 ERA, 1.07 WHIP, 85 Ks
Kluber >28.2 innings, 1.88 ERA, 0.77 WHIP, 33 Ks
Maybe that evens out more once Kluber gets more innings, but so far he's been clearly better.

I got Newhouser at 80 and honestly regret it. I wish I had Kluber since his sinker is broken good, he is much harder to hit imo. Newhouser has been solid but Kluber is the best pitcher in the game rn.
-
I absolutely love Newhouser. Being a Tigers fan I might be biased but I had a 23 strikeout game with him and then another 20 strikeout game. If you know how to pitch with him he is unhittable. But, I will say that Kluber has the better pitch selection.
