AROD/CABRERA

Postby GoldenHawk » Mon Mar 09, 2009 1:47 pm

In a keeper league draft (where guys are released after 4 years being held) has Cabrera now moved ahead of Arod for the 3rd overall pick (Wright and Pujols are going 1 and 2)? Its 8x8 (extra hitting cats are total bases, walks and Ks.

I have this 3rd pick and will have the choice of Arod or Miguel Cabrera..

will help out if you leave a link..

If I understood you and you can keep them 4 years I would still go Miggy.

Arod is a monster, but hip problems from batters who get their power from their waist (at his age) is not comforting.


Most would prob. say Arod.. but Miggy is so close in value and in a great lineup also.

it is absolutely miggy, no question in my mind
they put up similar enough numbers (outside of SB), and are normally separated by a few picks...miggy is also only 25 and ARod isnt getting any younger

I see no reason to go Arod over Cabrera. Cabrera obviously offers youth, so he looks to be the easy longterm choice.

I did the full math in another thread, but if you took 3/4ths of an Arod season, and 1/4th of a replacement player's season and compared them against Cabrera, then Cabrera is the better own this year too I think.

I'm wiggy for Miggy. Snag him and reap the rewards. Dude is in for a biiiig year and obviously A-Rod's value is down now. Whether for the future or now, I think Mig is the pick.
