Wieters worth stashing in a ROTO league?

Postby Howie » Sat Apr 04, 2009 12:54 am

Wieters is a free agent in my 10 team roto league with pretty deep rosters. It's an easy decision to stash him in a h2h league, as he'll be up and (hopefully) mashing by the time the h2h playoffs come around. In roto, he's dead weight for potentially 2 months. However, I don't have to burn my waiver on him, and I'd only have to drop Manny Corpas for him. The question is whether its worth stashing him or not. My current C is Victor Martinez. Thoughts?

For Corpas, who is useless without the closer role, that is fine.

even though corpas could get you some good points for K's in a set-up role, you have solid pitchers on the bench. so, i'd drop him to get weiters. however, i really feel that corpas will end up being the closer; just my opinion. so watch him in case.

Sure. With that much bench space, he's a great stashee. If VMart returns to form and Wieters hits well, you can trade one of them later for an excellent MI.

Though I'd probably drop Helton before Corpas. I know he's a popular deep pick, but I'd rather have Corpas, in case Street struggles, than a 1b whose ceiling is around 20 hrs.
