FA and Waiver Help Please!...... WHIR

Postby ahcryky » Sat May 26, 2012 2:10 am

10 Team Keeper, we keep 8. R,HR,RBI,SB,BB,TB,OPS. W,SV,HR,K,ERA,WHIP,QS. Positions C,1B,2B,3B,SS,IF,OF,OF,OF,UTIL,UTIL. Sandoval was dropped and I have No. 1 Waiver. Also, players I'm looking at on the wire. I've shopped LaHair, but no one wants him, so was considering dropping him for Sandoval. I could drop a pitcher for one of the FA.
Pagan
Francoeur
Viciedo

My Team
J. Montero/K. Kershaw
J. Votto/J. Shields
B. Phillips/ I. Kennedy
H. Ramirez/ M. Latos
B. Lawrie/ J. McDonald
A. Gonzalez/ J. Cueto
R. Braun/ C. Sele
M. Cabrera/ J. Axford
B. LaHair/ A. Reed
J. Reddick/ A. Pettitte
A. Gordon/ D. Fister
J. Altuve/ F. Paulino
V. Martinez - DL
J. Ellsbury - DL

Any input would be greatly appreciated and will help you in return, leave a link. THANKS!

I'd also drop Pettitte. Sale is also a choice here but he is younger with more upside (same for Paulino) so Pettitte is probably the guy to drop. I'd hold LaHair and keep trying to deal him, try to deal him for someone really underrated or underperforming, or someone hurt. Or ideally you could deal him in a 2 for 1 perhaps. But yeah dropping Pettitte for Sandoval works great for you.

Thanks for the help on mine!

I have to agree with dropping Pettite. Sandoval is a must add.

Thanks for your input with mine.

Have to go with the crowd here and say drop Pettite, not LaHair. But you have to put in a claim for Sadoval. And don't drop Gordon as tempting as it may be, give him a little more time.

I would drop Pettitte. Do not drop Gordon; I would drop Dee Gordon, but not Alex Gordon. Thanks for the help on mine.

I agree that Pettitte is the way to go here. Definitely scoop up Pablo. I wouldn't drop LaHair, I'd still try to move him or package him. Thanks for the help on mine!

Thanks for all the help guys......... Pablo comes off waivers tomorrow, so I'm trying to send some offers today. One, sending LaHair and Pettitte for Walker and Beachy. I've tried to package Kennedy with the same owner, but he doesn't seem interested in him. I would drop Walker and pick up Francoeur or Viciedo. I want to see what Paulino does today, he was my streamer for the week, and could drop him to put in the waiver for Pablo. Any other suggestions? Will always help in return. Leave a link.
