Huff at 3B?

[brdmaverick]

Is Aubrey Huff eligible for 3rd base this year?

Is he going to play third base at all this year for the DRays?

[Nberan]

No he isn't. They are gonna have Blum PLay 3rd and damian rolls platoon there.

They don't plan on using him at 3rd. He only played 8 games at third last year, I don't think that will qualify him at 3rd on Yahoo. Other sites, I don't know.

alright, thanks, on ESPN rankings, they have him eliglibe for 1st, OF, AND 3B, but I wasn't sure if it was enough to make him eligible in most leagues, but apparently not.

[Guest]

He's eligible in our league (5 games is all that's necessary). Given that, is he the #2 3B behind Arod of course?

[Jackie Treehorn]

I'd put him right there with Rolen and Chavez

[kentx12]

I may be stupid but if he qualified at 3rd in my league I would put him 2nd behind Rolen.

i think huff is a stud. if you can get him at third TAKE HIM!!!! there are plenty of good hitting 1B and OF.....there are a handful of good hitting 3B. and IMO huff hits better than Rolen and Chavez. he hits jsut as many jacks, RBI's but also hit for better average!

I like Huff alot, I've had him the last 2 years.

I wouldn't take him over Rolen or Chavez though, because I think he might be a guy can tha can still slip past a couple folks radar. Rolen and Chavez probably go in about the 3rd round, Huff might last longer.

To me, a draft is all about taking players who fall to you in rounds later than they should be drafted, and anticipating which players these might be.

DGroundhog.....I couldn't agree more with everything you said there.
