Bay, Kemp, Rios - Pick 2

Postby matthos » Sun Apr 05, 2009 9:51 pm

I have Hamilton so he's in. I had originally drafted Rios and Kemp but recently was able to secure Bay. Which one between Rios, Kemp, and Bay should I ask to "ride the pine".

I would be happy to give you my opinion on your conundrum.

Definitely Bay. You can't go wrong with either Kemp or Rios, IMHO.


Neither has a large sample size against the opposing pitcher. (Rios 1h 2AB, Rios 1BB 1 AB). But if you want to play the matchups, then I wager Rios has a better time against Verlander than Kemp against Peavy.

Thanks. How about for the season as a whole? Playing the match-ups everyday can be maddening.

So do you think you'll be hanging on to Bay...I'd see about trading him.
Good luck, feel free to PM me

i'd try to fit all three of them into my lineup whenever possible -- they're all 5-tool players. Who do you have at utility?

So that raises the question - who've you got at 2B?! :-b

(Also, how many teams in this league? Can't be too many, with all those top round picks on your team).
