4 Keepers before Saturday

Postby BrewCrewFan09 » Wed Feb 25, 2009 10:50 pm

Roto league, 14 teams, 7x7, 4 keepers details below.

So far, I have narrowed my roster from last year down to the following:

Longoria
Peavy
Granderson
David Ortiz
Kinsler
Adrian Gonzalez

I have had Ortiz and Peavy for many years. I think i want to dump Ortiz. Granderson would be a stretch. Some risk in Longoria and Kinsler I think. Gonzo may have peaked as well.

Appreciate any advice - WHIR

Longoria
Peavy
Granderson
David Ortiz
Kinsler
Adrian Gonzalez

Because your league counts total bases, Granderson is a must. He hit more triples than everyone other than Reyes last season. Tough to leave any of those guys out though. Peavy is still young and has many years left although people seem to enjoy craping on him like he's yesterdays news. He's still a keeper too.

Gonzalez beat Granderson in TB.

Longoria
Kinsler
Peavy
Gonzalez

Granderson/Gonzalez a push, but i think Gonzalez is the better hitter.

Granderson had 53 less at bats, steals bases, and had a better batting average by .001 points :-b

LOL... actually since Granderson doesn't really steal a ton of bases especially for a lead of hitter. A-Gon probably is a better option.

That's true, but AGon will hit more HR, which are even more bases. And about as many doubles. I'd give a pretty good edge to AGon here.

I'd keep
- Peavy
- AGon
- Kinsler
- Longoria
