6x6 12-team keeper league. Extra category is OPS. These two are my candidates to man UT until A-Rod comes off the DL. Andy LaRoche: 7 games; 4 @ STL, 3 @ CIN David Freese: 7 games; 4 v PIT, 3 v HOU Leave a link, and I'll help in return.

I'd probably go with Freese. LaRoche has Wainwright, Lohse, Wellemeyer, Carpenter, Cueto, Owings and then Harang compared to Freese who has Maholm, Snell, Duke, Ohlendork, Hampton, Oswalt and then Wandy.

I think it's kind of a crap shoot. LaRoche is more talented, but Freese has a better sched. If you need upside go LaRoche, if you just want reliable mediocrity this week go Freese.

I would go with LaRoche... I think he will be a very solid player this year despite last year's struggles.
When it comes to exaggerating, I always give 110%.

I'd go with Freese for this week. It's an easier schedule. Long-term I like LaRoche, but short-term definitely Freese.
help me?
