i sit wells easily out of that foursome as i see him as easily the worst out of all of them...he has only ever had one or two good fantasy seasons, and has been trending down for a bit, but people seem to think he is going to go back to those old numbers, i just dont see it happening
Agreed, though keep an eye on match-ups too. Ellsbury could sit against tough lefties given the presence of Rocco Baldelli on the Sox bench. Otherwise, yes, Wells would sit...at least until he shows signs of life. At least Ellsbury, McLouth and Crawford are all threats to help you with SB, even if they're in a slump. Wells has to be hitting for power to have value and it's been a while since he did that consistently.
I would actually go ahead and start Wells, Ellsbury, and Crawford. Vernon is facing a pitcher like Edwin Jackson who is prone to give up some runs. Along with the Jays revamped offense, I don't think you can sit Wells. I think Boston and Tampa will have a shootout tonight so I think you have to sit McLouth here.

Hope that helps, good luck.
You make some fantastic points.I also agree McLouth needs to sit here.
