Bruce/Tavaras/adam Jones...

Postby lastingsgriller » Fri Apr 03, 2009 12:43 pm

5x5 h2h league with OPS instead of avg.

this is my offense

C Jorge Posada
1B Prince Fielder
2B Jose Lopez
SS Jhonny Peralta
3B Evan Longoria
OF Carlos Lee
OF Nick Markakis
OF Alex Rios
Util Jay Bruce/Willie Tavaras/Adam Jones
B Matt Weiters

obviously there is a lot of power here.. what do I do with my util spot

Jay Bruce - Just Keep piling on the power and try to dominate OPS, HR, RBI, and R and just punt steals..

Willie Tavaras - hope he gets about 85 SB this year and give me a chance every week in the steals cat..

Adam Jones - go for the combo of speed and power and just get the steal cat occationally..




obviously thing could change over the year and Bruce or Jones could play themselves into a position where I could never bench them, but just looking for the best way to start anyways..

I think it depends on how you feel compared to the other teams; you pretty much described them as needed. If you feel confident about your power compared to other teams, I say Taveras to help you get some SB points. Now if you feel like there are some teams that can keep up with you, might as well do Bruce to help wrap it up. If you feel a mixture of both, and just want a solid all around, do Jones.
