Couldn't agree more. Unfortunately he's rarely healthy and should not be relied upon as your main source of SBs.

I also have Derosa in the OF. Maybe I should hold onto Jack Wilson in case Lugo's bat doesn't come around. Then I could drop Derosa for Dave Roberts. Anyway I'm not sure if Derosa is guaranted a spot when kinsler comes back. :-?

Yes, drop DeRosa. Kinsler will be playing 2b when he comes back.

In the future add/drop questions should go in the waivers forum rather than within threads in the Leftover forum though. Just so you know.

I'd drop Jack Wilson for Roberts if you need some help in the steals category

I wouldn't bet two cents Roberts will stay healthy, but he's worth a pickup to ride him while he's healthy. I'd only spot start against riighties though (A) he hits them better, and (B) its harder to steal on lefties.

For a guy who was considered a bum in 2005, he didn't really put in that bad a fantasy season in 2005. Considering the scarcity of SB, he was actually pretty reasonable fill-in.
