Help me with my FA moves? WHIR!!

Postby TheGhost » Wed Mar 18, 2009 9:50 am

Just looking to make a couple moves with some FA's. Should I drop Huston Street since Manny Corpas looks like the front runner for the Rockies closer? I could add another closer or just go with Chad Qualls and Heath Bell. Thinking of dropping Chien-Ming Wang too. He got smacked around really good the other day. Should I add a FA? If so, who should I drop?

FA's include: Cameron Maybin, Manny Corpas, James Loney, Alex Gordon, Joel Hanrahan, Matt Lindstrom, Frank Francisco, Fernando Rodney, Justin Duchscherer, Chris Volstad, Mike Pelfrey, Fausto Carmona, Chris Perez, Travis Hafner, Ramon Hernandez, Jordan Zimmerman.

I play in a ten team H2H, yahoo league. 12 cats: runs, home runs, RBI, avg., SB, OPS... wins, strikeouts, saves, ERA, WHIP, walks.

C: Chris Iannetta
1B: Albert Pujols
2nd: Chase Utley
3rd: Evan Longoria
SS: Alexei Ramirez (2nd, OF)
OF: Matt Kemp, Jay Bruce, Nelson Cruz
Utl: David Ortiz
BN: Derek Jeter, Elijah Dukes, Ryan Zimmerman

SP: Jake Peavy, Francisco Liriano, Felix Hernandez, David Price, Randy Johnson, Erik Bedard, Chien-Ming Wang
RP: Houston Street, Chad Qualls, Heath Bell

Thoughts/advice?? WHIR.

I would probably drop Elijah Dukes if I were you. I am just not a big fan of him. Maybe pick up Maybin instead? I feel like there is a better chance of him being well worth his value than Dukes.

I think your SP looks solid. As far as RP, I would probably only go with closers that I know for sure are closers. I would go with either Francisco or Lindstrom over Street, but thats just me.

Good luck!

COL's situation is up in the air. Personally I think it's going to Corpas but it could go either way so I'd just avoid it and drop Street to pick up Frank Francisco.
