Pick up Fred Lewis? Use my #1 Waiver Priority?

Postby sigriffey » Sat Mar 21, 2009 7:36 pm

Someone just dropped Fred Lewis. Given his 11 triples and plenty of SBs last year, and his 3 triples this spring, i think he could be a lethal combo with Granderson and Rollins for that cat. Do I use my #1 waiver on him or hope he falls through? and also, who would you drop for Lewis? Andrus? Escobar? Buehrle? Someone else?

12 Team H2H league, 6 Keepers.

stat cats: R, 1B, 2B, 3B, HR, RBI, SB, BB, AVG -- IP, W, L, CG, ER, ERA, K, SV, WHIP

My Team (pending my recent trade):

C Wieters
1B Pujols
2B Pedroia
SS Rollins
3B Cabrera
OF Sizemore
OF Granderson
OF Damon
UT T.Hunter, Lowell, Griffey
B E.Andrus


SP Sabathia, Peavy, Billingsley, Lilly, Kershaw, Scherzer, B.Myers, Buerhle, K.Escobar
RP Broxton,M.Gonzalez, Motte

I'm someone who values the #1 waiver priority pretty highly, so I'd hope he slips through, to be honest. I do like Lewis, but given the fair weather nature of some managers, it might be worth holding onto in case older star player "x" starts the season slowly and gets dumped by an impatient owner (perfect example, Roy Oswalt cut by a clown manager in my league inexplicably after his slow start). You should also talk to the commish of your league about the use of trading your waiver priority, last year I dealt my late waiver priority and a player for a lesser player and #1 waiver priority, was definitely a good trade chip for that particular owner, and could be for you. Just some thoughts. Help with mine if you don't mind?
