catcher question

Postby steamer33 » Tue Apr 07, 2009 12:28 pm

I'm new to fantasy & I'm playing in a 10 team - H2H - 5x5 - nonkeeper league. Someone in my league drafted 3 top catchers (McCann, Martin, Doumit). They just dropped Doumit. I wondering if I should drop Napoli for him, or instead drop Giambi? I took Giambi with my last pick & I already have decent HR guys, but I'm wondering if it's a good idea to carry 2 catchers & rotate?

C-Mike Napoli
1B-Derrek Lee
2B-Chase Utley
3B-Garrett Atkins
SS-Rafael Furcal
2B/SS - Aaron HIll
1B/3B - Aubrey Huff
OF-Ryan Braun
OF-Matt Holliday
OF-Many Ramirez
OF-Vernon Wells
OF-Coco Crisp
Util-Adam Lind
BN-Mark Reynolds
BN-Travis Snider
BN-Jason Giambi

Personally I'd drop Napoli for Doumit. Isn't Napoli splitting time with Mathis at C?

Yes definitely drop napoli for doumit. Doumit is one of the better hitters that just so happens to be a catcher.

Either one would be ok to drop, personally I'd drop Napoli too, Giambi has more power potential, but both will hurt your BA. Drop Giambi for somebody else . . . possibly a closer candidate.
I'm Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!!!!

Doumit is an upgrade and will play everyday because he can hit.
