Do I make a move? WHIR

Postby Bjorne Greece » Fri Apr 24, 2009 10:31 am

I'd like more HR's and/or stolen bases. Some of the guys I'm looking at are Konerko, Choo, Hafner, Luke Scott, Nyjer Morgan, Tavares, Casey Blake, T. Snider, Melky Cabrera.

I took a chance on Adam Lind going into this season, he had a very good first week but that's where most of his numbers are coming from and I think he went about the last 3 mos. of last year without a HR so I don't really want to wait forever to see him blossom. He's a candidate to be dropped.

Worth the risk? Who else to drop? And for whom?

12 team league. Start: 1B, 2B, SS, C, 3B, OF, OF, OF, UTIL, SP, SP, RP, RP, P, P, P (we have 2 DL spots)
SP: Halladay, Shields, Grienke, Cueto, Harang, Kuroda (DL), W. Rodriguiez
RP: Fuentes, F. Fransisco, Franklin, Corpas,
C: Ryan Doumit (DL), Pierzynski
1B: D. Lee, A. LaRoche
2B: B. Phillips
SS: H. Ramirez
3B: Chris Davis
OF: Kemp, Quentin, Ethier, Lind, Fowler

Since it looks like you start everyone you have on your roster, I wouldn't dip into the free agent pool right now by dropping Lind. I think he is still on pace for a 80/25/85/.285 season. I'd drop Fowler before him. The guy that you might think about is Choo. He will get a couple extra stolen bases, but that is it with him. Morgan is an interesting guy. But do you really want to plug him in with a guy who can't take a walk?

I did forget to list there, Adrian Beltre was just dropped in my league and although he is having a down year so far, he is an interesting player to me.

Yeah, I think Adrian Beltre would be a good fit for your team. He has started a little slow, but he picked up three hits in three games over the weekend. It's a contract year for him, too. He would get you 5-10 more home runs over a season than the other guys.
