Davis or Felix...which to keep? WHIR

Postby mj85 » Fri Feb 06, 2009 2:16 pm

This is the 3rd year of my 12 team H2H keeper. I am defending champion and think I have a good shot again so I'm not in rebuilding mode at all. I have 6 of my 7 keepers ironed out but I can't decide on the last one.

The stats are standard 5x5 H2H with normal ESPN roster (5OF, CI, and MI in addition to normal positions).

I'm keeping:

Reyes
Sizemore
Teixeira
Aramis
Bruce
Hamels

That leaves me with the choice of choosing between Davis, Felix, Kazmir, and K-Rod for the last spot. I rank Kaz and K-Rod the lowest but can't decide between the other two. I really prefer keeping bats over arms given the fact that hitters are usually more consistent. Davis and Felix both have HUGE upside, but Felix pitches for a crappy team. That said, I am a big Rangers fan so maybe my judgment is clouded somewhat. I think if I kept Davis, I have very solid lineup and can fill in with the many middle tier pitchers. Bats with the power of Davis are hard to come by.

Any thoughts?

I would defiantly say Davis, especially in a keeper league, pitchers are just two risky unless they are on one of the top two tiers.

Davis for sure.

Cloud your judgment, your affiliation does not.

Go with that bat particularly since you have Hamels.

I would keep Davis, but I don't think he's a surefire bet to be the player so many people think he'll be, at least this season. The problem is that Felix has struggled to be consistent, and it will be tough for him to win games with that offense behind him.
