10 Fantasy Baseball Players to Buy and Sell for Week 11
Sell Ross Stripling
To say I'm not sold on the viability of the Los Angeles Dodgers' Ross Stripling is an understatement, even as good as he's been.
On Sunday night, the young right-hander did it again, going 6.2 innings and giving up just 2 runs on 4 hits with no walks and 6 strikeouts, giving him a 1.65 ERA on the season.

In his last five starts, he's struck out 53 batters, walked 4 and given up 7 runs, and that's been vital production with Clayton Kershaw on the disabled list again.

I'm not sold this is anything more than a temporary hot streak, and if someone is willing to offer you a top-tier pitcher for Stripling -- or you have a wealth of pitching and can snag an impact bat for him -- I'd certainly dangle his 60-inning hot streak to see what you can get.
