I need help with my OF

Postby jaybogey » Tue Feb 24, 2009 5:08 pm

I need some help here, I am in a Roto 5x5 league

My team is

C=Russell Martin
1B=Carlos Pena
2B=.Kaz Matsui
SS=Ryan Theriot
3B=Ryan Zimmerman
OF=Jay Bruce
OF=Nelson Cruz
OF=Denard Span
UTIL=Mark Reynolds

BN=Mike Napoli (C)
BN=Felipe Lopez (2B,3B, SS, OF)
BN=Hank Blalock (1B, 3B)
BN=MIke Cameron (OF)

SP=Johan Santana
SP=Jake Peavy
SP=Brandom Webb

RP=Jonathan Papelbon
RP=Brian Fuentes

P=Francisco Liriano
P=Adam Wainwright
P=Max Scherzer

I am extremely happy with my pitching, but notice I lack power, and my power hitters bring low BA, I want to drop Mike Cameron,and available in waivers are Travis Snider, Adam Lind, Adam Jones, and Jeff Francoceur. I think I am good on speed and want a OF who will give me decent power and BA. Which one out the aforemantioned looks promising.

None of the 4 will hit for a high average.

Francouer is crap imo.

Jones could go 20/20, so he will have the most value.

Snider has the most power, but his SO will bite into his average.

Lind might hit for the highest average, but i still would take Jones.

I would take Snyder if you can keep him, he has the highest ceiling.

I'm going with Jones' 20/20 capability.

hootie can go blow a fish. francouer isn't garbage. unless he has one more bad year...that would be different. a new approach should help him.

He shouldn't be on waivers. Is that all the bench you have? Do you have any bench pitching at all?

I tell ya you have enough pitching, deal one or two of those arms for some studs on offense. your extreme lack of offense will be your undoing.

Frenchy and Jones need to be added. That could give some significant thunder to your lineup which lacks ANY at all.
The best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be!

He didn't say he was garbage he said he was crap. A .238 batting average, that's worse than crap, averaging 19 HR's per season with next to no stolen bases... crap.
