I have Baker ready to come off the DL tomorrow... I need to drop one guy .. and not sure who I should drop...

Here's my roster:

C: Molina
1B: Votto
2B: Phillips
SS: A Ramirez
3B: Wright
CF: Sizemore
LF: Holliday
RF: Markakis
U: Blalock
Bench: Daniel Murphy, Justin Upton, Wieters
SPs: Peavy, Shields, Gallardo, Myers, O Perez, Kawakami, Anibal Sanchez, Chris Young, Baker (DL) (start 5)
RPs: Soria, Francisco, Rodney, Villanueva, Downs (start 3)

I have high hope on Upton and Wieters once they show up but looks like 1 of these guys is gonna hit the FA... or should I drop one of the RPs... it's a very competitive league... in a dilemma mode.... WHIR..

Let me hear y'all!
Thanks cafe! ;-D

I think you would miss Downs the least. I always like to have depth among SP. I would hang onto both Upton and Wieters.

Typically I'd drop an offensive players because I like the depth in my pitching staff. Problem is, ESPECIALLY if it's a keeper league, your young talent on the bench. I wouldn't drop Upton, Weiters, or Murphy. Be patient w these guys (if a keeper league). If it's not a keeper I'd drop Upton. I'm unsure how much he'll produce this year, and I really like Murphy in that lineup batting in the 2 hole. If it is a keeper then I'd drop Downs or consider dropping Blalock. Blalock is injury prone, so keep that in mind.
Not a keeper drop Upton
Keeper drop Downs unless you want to keep the pitching depth then drop Blalock
