Just did my live draft. Head to head 6 team league with these scoring categories: R, H, 1B, 2B, 3B, HR, RBI, SB, AVG, SLAM, W, CG, SHO, SV, K, ERA, WHIP
Here's my team: C: Mauer 1B: Fielder 2B: Kinsler SS: Alexei Ramirez 3B: David Wright IF: Tulowitzki OF: Braun, Bay, Crawford, Kemp UTIL: Pence Bench: Iannetta (since Mauer won't start the year), Nelson Cruz, Felipe Lopez (2B, 3B, SS, OF eligibility) SP: Webb, Shields, Liriano RP: Papelbon, Soria, Jenks P: Nolasco, Gallardo Bench: Wainwright, Josh Johnson
Here's my question: Jorge Cantu and JJ Hardy are both available. Should I drop Felipe Lopez for one of these guys? I like Hardy, but with Ramirez and Tulowitzki, I really don't need a SS. Since Lopez qualifies for so many positions, I grabbed him. However, Cantu would give me a good back-up at 1B and 3B. Who do you like?
i like Hardy and Cantu better than Lopez. i do like Lopez and think he is going to do well this season leading off for Arizona, but Hardy and Cantu have greater value. you could pick up Hardy and then trade one of Ramirez or Tulowitzki for help elsewhere. because of your cats i think i like Cantu for better numbers than Hardy. you could take Hardy and then trade one of your other SS, or you could take Cantu and use him at UT and then trade one of your OF.

I do like Lopez this season, Hardy too, but Cantu is the right move for your team. He gives you depth at the corners and will probably put up the best stats this year.
I like Hardy the most, but with the positional flexibility and chance for good SB #'s, I'd probably hold on to Lopez. Cantu is typically underrated, but I've never been a big fan.
