i think you should dump navarro for posada (and im a sox fan too). judging by the talent on your team this seems to be a small league, so if posada gets hurt or doesn't work out im sure you could find an adequate replacement on FA. if you're looking to cut yankees, get rid of wang - see if you can trade him. his biggest value is wins and that is category i don't chase. maybe wang and young for tulo or s. drew.

thanks for answering mine

Hey there, the only person you could logically drop is Navarro. I have both Posada and Navarro on my team, but honestly I think that Navarro could end up having a very similar year to Jorge. I just wanted to have a solid backup incase Posada gets hurt again. Overall you have a really nice team and should do really well this year! Good luck!

Help with mine?

agreed with dooho again... posada has alot more value then navarro imo... im looking more along the lines of '07 numbers for Posada this year 80/20/80/.260-.270... navarro i say gives you somethin along 60/15/65/.280...

help me out...

So far Posada has had no recurring pain or loss in power from his surgery. I'd say go with Posada, easily.
