Hermida or Headley?

Postby guyincognito » Wed Apr 01, 2009 9:40 am

Who's going to have the better season? Looking to package one of them in a deal and want to make sure I retain the better option. Just curious of everyone's thoughts. Hermida has never been able to live up to expectations, however, he is having a very nice spring, and Headley is going to be a full time player this year, so with a full season under his belt he could step up and prove why he was one of the top prospects. What do you think?

When he plays, I believe Hermida will put up better #s. It just depends on how many games he'll be able to play.

Depending on your eligibility settings, Headley has 3B/OF positions. While I don't like the SD ballpark for hitters, I would rather have the less injury concern.

Hermida is the guy to go with. He can stay healthy this year and produce good numbers. I would say in 500 ABs he could be among the top 30-40 OF by the end of the season. Keep in mind, he is more of a 2nd half guy.

The younger Headley is the more tantalizing option.

How about throwing Kendry Morales in the mix for the best utility bat?

I'd give Hermida another shot. He's been good the last two years when he has played; hopefully, he stays away from the injury bug this year. Improving his home split wouldn't hurt either.
