Should I pick up Thome?

Postby Tophe » Tue Mar 17, 2009 11:25 am

This guy just dropped Thome in my H2H league. Im 3rd on the waiver wire, so good chance I can get him if I want to.

My roster's posted below, let me know if you think it would be a good move to have him as my U player. I was thinking I would probably drop konerko, or one of my starting pitchers??

Please post up your recomendation on who to drop if I do pick him up.

Thanks

I am not a fan of blowing your waiver claim this early in the season, you have a strong team and will be stacked when A-roid comes back, hold onto your waiver pick for a stud to come up from the minors.

See if he clears waivers, then drop Galarraga for him.

I like your thinking roto....I need to just be patient. We just need the season to start....I get bored and want to make moves ya know :) That is probably what I will wait and do I think.

I think gallaraga is going to be solid this year, so I dont want to drop him until he lets me down..
