i currently have torii hunter but carlos lee is on fire. my other outfielders are ramirez, bonds and berkman, so i am doing well in power numbers. i need batting average and steals and am wondering if lee can continue to play this well. thanks in advance.

If you need average and steals, and not really the power then I would stick with hunter for sure, and I really wouldn't change from hunter to lee in any case no matter if lee is hot right now. Remember he did the exact same thing earlier this season and then had that dry spell for what a few months?!?!?!

I personally don't think he will keep it up for the rest of the year with his poor plate discipline. He has a very streaky player. I don't think I'd drop Hunter for him(why drop him when you had keep him through his slump for so long?). However, don't hesitate to pick up Lee with some less valuable player, just ride him while he is hot. :-)

lee is better than hunter and gives you steals too.

hunter is still cruisin on his name but lee is the better fantasy OF, especially with the chisox O going nuts now.

don't get sucked in by the bigger name. carlos lee is the better choice. even without the hot steak, lee was just as good if not better year than hunter this year. lee now has 23 hrs, 75 rbi and a solid .276 avg. compare those to hunters medicore numbers and its really not close. remember lee is only 27 years old, this is his breakout season.
