I agree there's no real reason to carry 2 C (unless of course it's a play 2 C league), but I might wait to see how VMart and Doumit do. There are some questions surrounding both of them this year, so while you have the luxury you may want to see how they perform in April before moving them.

I agree to this as well.
You did yourself nice with the catcher depth, now cash in! ;-D


It was only a good move if he can trade them. Catcher is pretty deep this year.

Well, deep to those who actually see the depth. Most people go with the long time idea that C is extremely top-heavy. Plus, VMart and Doumit are generally 'rated' in the top 2 to 3 tiers of the catcher position.

Many thanks for your input, I will see how VMart and Doumit do and then see what I can get for one of them a little more into the season.

Here's for hoping Kemp delivers ;-D
