Ibanez/ Ethier/ Beltre/Zimmerman

Postby californiasunshine » Fri Apr 03, 2009 9:44 pm

Standard 5x5
Extra Info: No SB's needed, runs and avg would be nice, positions don't matter for this.

I have to drop 1 of:

Ryan Zimmerman
Ethier
Ibanez
Beltre

I'm leaning towards Ethier/ Ibanez any thoughts?
Thanks in advance

Zimmerman > Beltre

Ethier = Ibanez

I Would probably drop either Beltre or Ibanez... Bold prediction? Ibanez hits less than 20 HRs and has an OBP < .350. ;-D

Help me?

Fantasy sports are ruled by the 50-50-90 rule...

Anytime you have a 50/50 choice between two players, 90% of the time, you'll get it wrong

I guess I'd drop Ibanez (tho I like him a lot, as an M's fan..) simply becuase he is the oldest of the bunch and thus the most likely to regress.

However, Beltre probably plays on the worst team and has the least amount of protection, so his stats could suffer the most due to a lack of supporting cast (however, it is a contract year for him...)

So, I guess I'd say Ibanez, with some hesitation...

Beltre isn't good for average or runs, so I'd cut him first.
