Really can't go wrong with either one. Both are hitting in a very healthy lineup and in hitters parks. If I had to go with one, I think I would go with Hamilton just because he might steal a base or 2.

Being a FA coming into NY might also put some extra weight on Teixiera--I don't really think his production will fall, but you never know.

Well, I had that choice in one league and went with Teix. Both are really close though. What made me lean to Teix is that he has multiple seasons of production, versus just last year for Hamilton. Plus, I felt there were more late-round/WW outfielders that I liked than first basemen.

I'd go with Tex, just due to the fact that he is a little more proven (been doing it longer) and I think a less of a risk. Either one is great though.

I would go with Tex, when ARod comes back pitchers will be forced to pitch to him. The guy is going to have a big year.
