Need Some Help at Third Base ... WHIR

Postby theinflatinator91 » Thu Apr 02, 2009 7:33 pm

This is a 10 Team H2H league. The stats are R, H, 1B, 2B, 3B, HR, RBI, SB, BB, TB, E, AVG, OBP, SLG, PA.

My Roster:
Benji Molina
Lance Berkman
Brian Roberts
HANK BLALOCK
Hanley Ramirez
Carlos Lee
Jason Bay (keeper)
Curtis Granderson
Bobby Abreau (util)
Corey Hart (util)

Bench
J Upton
J Schafer
J Werth
M Wieters

My third baseman is Hank Blalock. On free agents there are Adrian Beltre, Edwin Encarnarcion, Mark Reynolds, Mike Lowell, and David Freese. Who deserves an add if any???

I like Beltre over Blalock if given a choice. Beltre seems to like playing for a contract, if his last contract year is any indication...he'll give you solid consistent numbers, maybe .270-25-85.

i like beltre and reynolds, giving beltre the edge. he's solid. i think either would be good pick-ups.

i like beltre this year. contract year, sure he's off steroids so you aren't seeing 40+hr anymore, but he's quietly been quite good over the past few year. 25hr power - a slight uptick from there is pretty nice. blalock is going to have a hard time finding playing time, especially since they kept andruw jones
