Anyone I should drop for Cahill, Escobar, or Spilborghs?

Postby mcliffy2 » Fri Apr 03, 2009 1:03 am

League is 12-team HtH, points (that favor hitting)
Positions: C, 1B, 2B, SS, 3B, 3 OF, U, 4 SP, 1 RP

Hitters
C: Inge
1B: Berkeman
2B: Utley
SS: J. Reyes
3B: A. Ramirez
OF: Soriano, Ludwick, Kemp
U: A. Gordon
RES: Matsui, Konerko, Saltalamacchia

SP: F. Hernandez, Verlander, Wainwright, Harden
RES: J Weaver, M Parra, Sonnanstine, Volstad, Chris Young, D Price, B Sheets

RP: Motte
RES: M Gonzalez

My thought is to drop Gonzalez because average closers will always be available, probably for Cahill or Escobar, I would lean Escobar right now, but I've already got two dead weight spots with Sheets and Price...thoughts?

Do not drop Gonzalez...Closers are super hard to come by in 12 team leagues!

Drop Inge!!! Salty should be able to carry you this yr, you can even drop Sheets and pick up Taylor Teagarden as back up then pick up Spilly! I am really big on him this yr!

Help plz

Kelvim for Sheets. Sheets isn't doing much of anything this year.

I agree. Kelvim is throwing gas. Could be a nice pickup this year.
