Bench better than Starters !!!?????

[Crazed98]

C J. Posada (NYY-C,DH)
1B J. Giambi (Oak-1B,DH)
2B R. Cano (NYY-2B)
3B D. Wright (NYM-3B)
SS J. Reyes (NYM-SS)
OF X. Nady (NYY-RF,LF)
OF H. Pence (Hou-RF)
OF J. Bay (Bos-LF)
U C. Davis (Tex-3B,1B)
BN D. Murphy (NYM-3B,LF)
BN M. Aviles (KC -SS,2B)
BN P. Sandoval (SF -C,1B,3B)

Sandoval > Posada ?
Davis > Giambi ?
Aviles > Cano ?
And how far am I stretching with
Murphy > Nady ?
Murphy > Pence ?

Should I bench my starters?

I would start Sandoval over Posada to start the season.
I would def start Davis over Giambi.
I would NOT start Aviles over Cano. Cano should have a bounce back year and even if he does not he should still out-perform Aviles.
Leave Pence and Nady in to start the year.

Leaves you w/ an interesting Utl question: Giambi, Aviles, Murphy. I would start w/ Giambi (as I believe he is healthy and could still hit 25 HR) - but I expect you will have to change often based on who is swinging the hotter bat. Or if Posada is doing well - put him in C - and you can place Sandoval at Utl.
