Reluctantly, I say yes, because I am not a fan of either of those guys. If it is a h2h league, they are murder to a team's batting average at times.
that said, yes, Konerko IMO, as he can impress when hot.

I think both will finish with similar stats. LaRoche is a notoriously slow starter though so go with Konerko and the hot hand.
Return the favor plz -

I vote for Konerko. IMO he has more upside then LaRoche. He's looking good this year, and his career BA is .278 which is acceptable. You can consider starting him against lefties as he has a real nice platoon split.

If it was me I would say yes but they may end up around the same. I think Konerko would more than likely be the better choice.
