Jack Flaherty or Walker Buehler for the long term?

I'll take Buehler

He's leading in WAR now.

And in order to finish the season there, he'll need a huge six weeks, yes?

Also, he's leading in rWAR, which is only one version of WAR and the reason you can't just click the WAR leaderboards to vote for MVP. It's a nice guideline but it shouldn't be treated as more than that. deGrom, Scherzer and Freeman are ahead of him in fWAR I believe.

will I  get some CY consideration (I know I won't win it), based on my #'s, and where I pitch

Some stray votes, sure, but I wouldn't even put him in the top 5 myself

Does Desclafani have a chance to develop into an ace or frontline pitcher?
Steve Adams

At this point they should just be healthy if he can give them 180 decent innings next year. He's not going to be an ace, but he's capable of being a solid 3rd or 4th starter.
I've got to wrap up for the week. I'm on Twitter @Adams_Steve for more questions if you like. Jason chats tomorrow night 6:30pm CT. Jeff on Tuesday 2pm CT.

Thanks everyone and enjoy the rest of your week!
