standard buy low, sell high deal, could backfire, but still Archer's skills, prefer him

I have a really hard time with Archer. The player rater for my league even had Bundy finishing 180 (35) and Archer finishing at 190 (37) in 2017.

Would this start against Boston do anything to sway how you feel about this trade?

Can't let one outing sway opinion - especially when it's snowing (not to mention, not over).

Your team, your call. if you want Bundy, don't rely on affirmation from me.

I appreciate you getting back to me.

It's not so much being swayed by one start as it is the four starts, the pedigree, the increased slider usage (Bundy), Chris Archers general overrated-ness, as well as his poor start. I'll probably be accepting but again I appreciate you responding. I've got a little bit of thinking to do.

Any worry with AL only? You didn't note, there is some risk with Archer going to the NL this year. Just a thought in case of.
