i think coco relishes in having a full time job again and puts up solid numbers in a budding KC offense.. roll with Coco


on a side note... Coco Crisp used to share an outfield with Milton Bradley... hahaha what a great tandem to bat 1 and 2 on the all name team...

As weak as my Infield is and I couldnt swing any trades for help,I think I will keep Barmes, since Colorado says he is the starting 2B

In a 12 team league, Dukes and Taveras shouldn't be out there. Barmes is crap. You could find a MI as good if you had too.

I pretty much decided to drop barmes but do i go Tavares or Cameron Maybin I know I am getting .270 1-2 hr 45 sb from Taveras, but intrigued by Maybin's potential. I have at least 5 players with 15+ sb potential, but not one high end speedster, whoever I get will be on the bench most the season anyway.

Since you need the speed, Taveras.

Drop Hafner for Dukes who could get 25 sb.

I agree with Dukes.. but if it comes down to Taveras and Maybin, I would take a chance on Maybin, unless you need help in the SB cat.

I should be adequete on speed, but Tavares may zap my power but I dont see much power from Maybins as well 7-10 hrs. I have Theriot and Milledge who could steal 30 and Wright Martin Ethier and Dukes could do 10-25 steals. I only have 2 possibly 4 (Bruce and Lind) that can hit 30= hrs
