no way, webb has been really reliable this season... and duke has had one quality start, and that quality start is THE only start hes had... i dont think we should get overexcited with him just like everyone praised Aaron Heilman when he had 10+ K's in his first start or something

How can Brandon Webb be killing your ERA? He has a 3.36 ERA on the season? There is no way Duke is going to do better than that.

duke did pitch well last night but webb is far better for you this year....next year could be a different story

and everyone praised Kyle Davies who has since pitched pretty poorly

If it's a keepers league, you're gonna want to pick up Duke somehow...but NOT for Webb...Webb is a stud and he's gonna only get better in years to come. And if this is not a keepers league you still should not drop Webb, he's pitching real well.

Keep in mind Webb is still only 25

What Webb are you talking about. Brandon Webb cant be killing your ERA. If you are hell bent on getting rid of Webb, then trade him. Dont drop any of those pitchers for Duke. He only has two starts. Remeber Kyle Davies? Davies is not bad, and he will be good, but he is not as good as his first two starts.

As i said before, if this is not a keepers league, dont bother getting Duke right now. All your pitchers are too good to drop for him. Just keep an eye on him. Start Webb in cincy.

Getting Podsednik would be a better deal for you if the guy will do it.
