buy low/sell high thread?

Postby gleemonex » Thu Apr 02, 2009 10:27 pm

cant seem to find it. where is it?
buy lows-
Corpas- good chance Street gets pulled soon. and Corpas has had a great spring.
Scott Baker- owners may be scared and cut loose at a cheap price. but risky with shoulder injury.

Sell High - Ichiro

I don't care how good a player he is, I see it very difficult for him to get 100 runs in such a weak lineup. Add to that that his speed has been down, and he's aging. I see him being a top 25 outfielder, but not top 10 like he's being drafted.

Ichiro wound up going late 4th round in a number of my leagues, which I think is an appropriate time to be taking him. It's not like you're overpaying for a .300 BA and 35 SB either.

Buy Low

Scott Kazmir - Was once perceived a top 5 Pitcher. Injuries seem to have passed, still young and has the ability to heal quickly. Great lineup to pitch behind...going in round 8-12

Scott Downs - Ryan is falling apart in Toronto. Downs posted 1.78 ERA last season in 70+ innings. Has shown good control in ST. GATson is really leaning toward trying him at closer while Ryan recovers.
