gotta be Chipper I think...As long as he's healthy he can produce.

...and even if he isn't healthy 100% of the time, he's easily the best player left. I'd take him and feel comfortable about it.

Yep, I like Chipper too

[oddmanout7]

I would take Chipper as well.

Agreed with you on Chipper producing when healthy, but I think Abreu will match him in everything but average (where you don't seem to have an issue) and give you an extra 20 SBs.

Abreu on your roster is a better fit.

[Dan Charette]

I'd go with Abreau as well.

[Fielder's Buffet]

i like abreu over chipper as well... but you have decent speed and need more power. I'd probably go with Dye and take the exta HRs.

Agree with the later consensus - Chipper + his replacement for 30 games will probably slightly out-earn Abreu, but not so much so that it overrides your need for OF.

Yep, I like Chipper too
