Who to drop for Alexei Ramirez (WHIR, link me)

Postby KrunK » Sat Apr 11, 2009 5:46 pm

I love impatient owners!

In my 10-team CBS points league (H2H), Robinson Cano was dropped a few days ago and the person who grabbed him off waivers dropped Alexei Ramirez. I was thinking about dropping Kevin Slowey for Ryan Spilborghs until I saw Alexei get unloaded this morning when waivers cleared. I only have Shin-Soo Choo on my bench for hitting (plus Chris Davis starting off slow in my U) and I am pretty well stacked at starter, so I'm thinking Slowey is the low man on the totem pole right now. Even if Hamels misses some time I've got enough confidence in the rest of my starting staff with Slowey gone.

C - Iannetta
1B - Fielder
2B - Utley
SS - Peralta
3B - Youkilis
OF - ManRam, Magglio, Crawford
U - Chris Davis
Bench: Shin-Soo Choo

SP: Hamels, Billingsley, Wainwright, Meyers, Greinke, Danks, Meche, Slowey, Chris Young
CL: Wilson and Qualls


He is a guy that I will probably use as trade bait for somebody who is weak at 2B if/when he gets hot or I can throw him in my utility if Davis doesn't live p to his potential this year. I know everyone in this league and they are all pretty competent fantasy managers, they just tend to get impatient at times.

Leave a link and I'l try to help you out!

Alexei is starting to turn it on finally! Grab him now! :)
It sounds like you are leaning towards Slowey so I would probably do that because of your lack of depth at position players (not a fan of Choo, but back-ups are nice). I might consider dropping Meche, but Meche started better than Slowey.

Help?
