Who do I keep: Corey Hart or Chris Davis?

Postby tolleyjenkins » Sat Mar 07, 2009 2:59 pm

If I keep Hart I lose my 19th round pick this year. If I keep Chris Davis I lose my 23rd round pick this year. We can keep people forever w/o limit.

Hart is safer for this year, but Davis has more long term upside.

10 team league, h2h, standard 5x5

My other keepers:
BJ Upton
Evan Longoria
Brandon Webb
Matt Kemp

Starting Offensive Positions: C, 1B, 2B, 3B, SS, CI, MI, OF x 4, UTIL.

i would keep davis, his ceiling is possibley very high. that and you keep your 19th pick makes it an easy decision for me. short term i don't see much of a downside picking davis anyway, his avg will be about the same, you will lose the SB's but certainly pick up some HR's.

help with mine? viewtopic.php?t=370531

I agree Hart is safer, but I like to gamble. Davis as a 23rd round pick has the potential to be the biggest steal of your entire league. Even if he does half of what he's expected to do he's still more valuable than a pick you would get in that round. Go for it.

personally, i like Hart. the 19th rd is great value too and he is a proven 20/20 guy. i guess i haven't seen enough of davis to be on the bandwagon as hard as everyone else. yes he's got huge power upside but i just don't know enough about him yet. also i'm an admitted hart guy.

I like Hart over Davis.
90% of my posts are from complaining about my team :)

Although there is just a small sample to go on, I got a feeling in the long run you're going to want to keep Chris Davis over Hart, so I'd keep him.

i like Hart over Davis but you can't go wrong with either. with the depth in of, you may have an easier time getting productive numbers if you go Davis for this season. good to plan for the future but need to win now. :)

Do you need 3B help? Davis is more valuable due to position scarcity than Hart.......and hopefully will play enough 3B to retain eligibility for next year.......Davis is young and has Hamiliton breakout potiental this year in that crazy Ranger lineup.

Classic keeper question, and I'll say Chris Davis, even despite the fact that you have a 3B in Longoria. Way more potential, whereas I could see Hart fading into obscurity after a good season.

help?
