Right now I'm using Aaron Miles at 2B because Nomar got hurt and I moved Figgins to SS. Is there anyone flying under the radar right now that could present an upgrade over Miles? Vizquel is available, but I really have no interest in him. Any ideas?
Bartlett has not been on the DL. Take a look at Nick Green. he has been stealing PT from Cantu and playing well. He qualifies at third and second with five or more games played at both. And he has played one game in the outfielder.
not exactly deep but Lugo will be a nice option this whole year for normally being considered WW material by most people. For a really deep one ill say Orlando Hudson, he gets PT and his numbers arent terrible for what you would expect from him, i thin khes a better option that Miles
Screw the Peavy and Burnett Watches, I'm probably one of the laziest people in the world
Deep, as in Marianas Trench deep? Nick Putno, for steals alone. The last two professional seasons he recorded over 400 at bats, he stole 33 and 42 bases respectively, although both those totals came in the minors. If Rivas finally gets the boot and Punto takes over at second base for the Twins, a 30-steal pace, prorated for whatever portion of the season reamins is a good possibility.
He was 6-for-6 in the bigs last season, playing in only 38 games, and for a portion of those games he was a defensive substitute. He's 1-for-1 so far this year.
