Saves or a reliable hitter?

Postby Robert1977 » Sun Mar 15, 2009 8:09 pm

I'm in a 12-team 6X6 NL-only with a $271 cap. My keeper hitters stink, and I don't think I have the team to contend for first or second place. I'd like to finish in the money, though, and I think I can.

My keeper hitters are Hart at $5 and Gaby Sanchez at $1.

I have been trying to deal Matt Lindstrom ($7), because there's no way I'm going to be able to compete for points in saves since a huge portion of my money will go to hitting and not a closer.

With that said, I have been offered Brian Giles for Lindstrom. Giles is $7. Should I do this deal? Should I hang on to Lindstrom?

Thanks to everyone who responds.

If you bag saves, you will have problems. I'm not high on Lindstrom, but i wouldn't give him away for Giles.

Defintely keep Lindstrom...Giles is a waste of roster space
