Rockies Fans Unite!

Postby HipHipJorge » Mon Apr 06, 2009 1:36 pm

I am not a rockies fan at all. But I need you guys ;-D

What is the outlook on Ian Stewart this year? I currently have him in a 12 team H 2 H league. Unfortunately I have Edwin at 3rd; and Stewart has 2b/3b eligibility.

I ask this bc Kelvim Esco is sitting on the DL/waivers. And Stewart looks like the most obvious cut.

Thanks in advance

I just saw that Stewart is starting at 2ND today. How sweet would it be if he got full time at bats at 2ND?

Would be very nice. Thanks for the response! Anyone else out there? Is this start today expected to continue; or is this a platoon sish?

Is Spilborghs really going to lose playing time to Fowler?
Looking forward to back to back championships in 2011!

I think Stewart will platoon with Barmes for a while, and hopefully Hurdle will realize that Stewart is the superior player and sacrifice defense for his offensive potential.

I don't expect Spilly to lose much if any playing time to Fowler. When Fowler's starting he'll likely be in left field the majority of the time. Seth Smith is more in line to lose playing time, though he hit a monster HR today.

He's a top 12 2B if he gets full at-bats there with a nice spot in the order, IMO.

i think itll play out like this as someone basically eluded to

stewart will eventually supplant barmes
barmes will be the super sub. He can play 3b, ss, and 2b
when fowler gets Play time im guessing Spilly will slide over to left field and Fowler will take CF.

Can someone explain to me why they are keeping Fowler up in the majors if he's not going to play everyday. Doesn't seem to make much sense to me to platoon someone like him at his age. Better off at AAA getting regular at bats.
