Lets' talk Catchers. Stop Yawning...

Postby kaiser » Fri Apr 03, 2009 9:54 pm

5x5 roto nonkeeper.

We start one catcher.

I've got Ramon Hernandez starting, and Matt Weiters sitting on the bench.

I think Hernandez makes a nice upside sleeper, and of course Weiters is everyone's darling.

However, Benji Molina has just been placed on the wire.

Long story short: who do you like more: Hernandez or Molina, at least until (if and when) Weiters comes up.

Molina definitely but I'd wait until he clears.

I'd say Molina, too... he's just flat-out more reliable than Ramon Hernandez.

Help if you can

I dont know... I was kinda liking Hernandez this season. I think its a toss up, but if you want ANY runs from your catcher, dont rely on Molina, that guy is slower than a special ed student doing algabra :-L

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
