Shop Berkman or Morneau?

Postby pre1322 » Mon Feb 09, 2009 11:24 am

Hey there,

This is my first experience with a Dynasty League, and I'm having a bit of trouble. It is a 14-team H2H Dynasty league, with 6x6 scoring (HLDs and OPS added). This is my team so far.

C: Victor Martinez
1B: Lance Berkman
2B: Jose Lopez
3B: Jorge Cantu
SS: Jose Reyes
OF: Carlos Lee
OF: Magglio Ordonez
OF: Raul Ibanez
UTIL: Lance Berkman
UTIL: Nelson Cruz

SP: John Lackey
SP: Francisco Liriano
SP: Ervin Santana
RP: Chad Qualls
RP: Jose Arredondo
P: Adam Wainwright
P: Max Scherzer

BN: Kenshin Kawakami
BN: Ryan Madson
BN: Rafael Soriano
BN: Pablo Sandoval

I went for potential upside SP, knowing the Cliff Lee's and Ervin Santana's of the league will inevitably pop up during the year. I figured upside would be easier to trade in a Dynasty if I needed to. I also was a victim of circumstance with my RP. The original settings called for 5 SP and 2 RP, so you basically had to choose one of HLDs or SVs. I decided on HLDs in my draft strategy as they would allow me to concentrate on hitting and SP early in the draft. However, my league voted to change the settings to these above in about Rd. 10, effectively nullifying my draft strategy, so I just kept on with HLDs while drafting RP who may be closers in the future.

My question is about upgrading my outfield and maybe grabbing some more speed. I'm considering shopping Morneau or Berkman to diversify a little bit, but which should I shop more aggressively?

Thanks a lot!!

I would rather keep Berkman over Morneau. But, with that being said you could get more for Berkman in a trade. But, I would still shop Morneau and keep Berk if it were me.

please help
