Who in God's name do I drop when A-Rod comes off the DL?

Postby CubsFan7724 » Wed May 06, 2009 12:00 pm

12 team, 6x6 H2H with OBP and QS. This is my roster
C - Sandoval
1B - Dunn
2B - Phillips
3B - Wright
SS - Bartlett
CF - Wells
OF - Damon
OF - Lind
UTIL - Blalock
BN - Bruce
BN - Wieters
BN - Holliday
DL - A Rodriguez

SP - Haren
SP - Beckett
RP - Frank Francisco
RP - Scott Downs
P - Mike Gonzalez
P - Hawkins
P - C Young
BN - Lilly
BN - Meche
DL - Valverde

I've got too many good hitters right now, none of them are droppable for A-Rod, and none of the pitchers are, either. Guess that means I HAVE to trade someone, right? Lind or Blalock are the best options since they are hot and I'm stocked at both.

I think it has to be Blalock or Bruce. It depends if you can hold out on Bruce to see if he is worth holding, but this might be a time (if it is not a Dynasty) that you cannot afford the luxury of holding a player like Bruce.

I sort of want to package Lind/Blalock together to improve either the OF or SS (though Bartlett is fine for me). What is fair value for Lind right now? He's absolutely mashing and I think he will be good, but I kind of want a a more proven OF for him.

Anyone else? I'm leaning towards Blalock since he'll really have no place to play with A-Rod back.

Hawkins or Lind for me - try packaging Wells/Lind/Damon for an upgrade - then plug in Holliday and Bruce as starters
