Should I drop Jay Bruce? WHIR...

Postby AshesOfEmpires » Sun Apr 19, 2009 6:46 pm

I know I shouldn't drop him, but I'm getting kind of antsy with him and my team needs some offense right now. Should I hold out hope that he can turn it around or should I grab one of these guys off the wire? Or do you have any other suggestions. The rest of my squad is underneath.


Elijah Dukes, Jason Bartlett, Kosuke Fukudome, Mike Cameron, Chris Duncan

I would retain Bruce, as he is bound to improve as the year progresses ... i have to have the same patience and more with Maybin...

maybe drop Rodney for Dukes if you are really eager for a bat...

help me?

In a redraft, there's no way I'd think of dropping Bruce, what more in a keeper. I'd drop Downs for Dukes instead, seeing how that as long as Ryan is healthy, he has a long leash in closing.
