Bullpen and Starters…Shohei worth it?
-
My SP, and bullpen seem stale. My 4 and 5 starters are a revolving door. Currently I have Milestone JV, Lightning Ray, deGrom, Seaver, and King Felix. Felix gives up hits/runs at the worst times. I can never seem to put anyone away with him. Seaver may be a more permanent #4. He has been solid, but kills me with his lack of control.
My bullpen has been lock until the last couple of weeks. I have Miller, Sig Eck, Reyes, Graveman, TN Richards, Gossage (not 99), POTM Williams, POTM Kitterage, and Milestone Mo.
I have about 500k, and was thinking about picking up Milestone Gossage, or Kenley. What are peoples experience with this guys?
I had Arrieta who seemed like BP. So I am at a loss for another SP recommendations?
I would only need to spend about 250k for Shohei. I would also get Peralta. Are they worth it at this point? -
He is worth it to get Mookie and whomever ends up being the final collection. Shohei wouldn't be top 5 as a pitcher since he is not the meta, but he is still really good, it his bat and speed in the lineup that makes him amazing.....His speed and power is just crazy from a pitcher....that alone I think made him worth it....plus he can PH and PR when not starting

If you use Mo a lot I would pick up Gossage, Kenley and Mo are very similar. I love Shohei he's been one of my best pitchers tbh on HOF.

His hitting alone makes Ohtani more than worth it. He's not leaving my rotation this year, no matter what pitcher cards end up getting released.

I agree that Goose, Jansen, and Mo are very similar, wouldn’t it be better to have a diverse bunch of righties in the pen as to not let your opponent see one then the other next? I know you carry more than those righties; but, do you ever run into that problem? I am honestly curious, you are obviously on a higher level than myself.

I personally destroy MO every time I face him.
Walked it off against him for about the 5th time yesterday.
Buy Goose and Jansen give me headaches -

Yeah so for me I run Gossage as my closer, and then and then for righties I have Dibble Mo Lee Smith and then a rotating 4th righty between Reyes, Fingers, and Garrett Richards. To me similarity in the Bullpen is not as critical because other than Jansen and Mo the pen guys are fairly different. I just try to differ the look from starter to reliever. For example: if I start Degrom and need to pinch hit for him I wouldn't follow him with Dibble (unless my opponent is struggling big time with velo), I'd rather use someone like Mo or Lee Smith which offers a different look (cutter for Mo and forkball for smith)
