You've got no one to drop, so don't bother.

[knittedmonkey]

Nope your team is solid as it is. Don't let Thome cramp your style.

[fierro33]

anyone here think thome helps my team?

[Chuckd05]

YES i do, i owned thome last year and he was solid as a rock...

people on this site fall in love with young guys and seem to forget proven vets that do work each and every year..

i would take thome over either, but in ur case id drop lastings or napoli... i NEVER roster 2 catchers for this reason, thome is a SOLID bet for 30hrs 100 rbis every year, he showed NO signs up slowing down last year. Sure, he will sit a game or two here and there with a stiff back but his production is aways there when hes in the lineup, HRs BBs AVG RBIS .

I wouldnt do it. You dont have anyone that you could drop for him...

How do you guys figure that thome is not better than anyone on his team... u guys are CRAZY

opening day he makes a HUGE difference in the game, puts his team ahead by 2 in the 8th with a HR .... prob the 300th time he did that... milliage has done that maybe once, napoli is a catcher who will end up splitting time with mathis which makes him USELESS....

chris davis is young and if its a keeper league where u keep many players he is DEF more valuable, but i will bet my ass that thomes numbers look better than his at years end as well so if not a keeper league i would rather bank on thomes production than his... MAYBE offer a 2-1 to upgrade at another spot involving davis or whoever else, because thome certainly deserves a roster spot.... i wouldnt drop davis but im just saying thome has consistantly been a high OBP guy with GREAT power, make the move, you will not regret it. your OF is fine, utilize ur DH with a DH with power....

I assume he has Napoli because Mauer is DLed, so that's probably not an option.

I like Thome, assuming you can fit him in. Davis will be a stud this year, so I'd keep him for sure. I'd lean towards Thome for Milledge - I think Thome will put up much better numbers than Lastings this year.
