Pick up Spilborghs or Fred Lewis??

Postby DetroitTigers » Sat Apr 04, 2009 6:08 am

Offensive categories are BA, OBP, SKG, H, 2B, 3B, HR, R, BB, K, SB. The guys on the MLB network think Lewis is gonna have a great year, but I haven't heard that out of many other people. Does Spilborghs great spring and increased playing time lead you to beleive he will have a better year than Lewis??

Lewis will get more stolen bases and Triples, so I'd pick him.

That's like choosing between an apple, & a steak.

Spilborghs = upside in average, HR, a few SB's

Lewis = upside in SB's

"Great year" is in the eye of the beholder.

If i mainly wanted speed with disregard to average, i would go lewis. If I were looking to add "the next big thing" I would go Lewis, if I were looking to add a solid 5x5 player with 20/20 potential in a hitters park, go Spilborghs.

I'd go Spilborghs in your shoes, w/ those categories. I'm debating dropping Elijah Dukes for Spilborghs myself.
