Hill v. Phillips, Morneau v. Pena, Ibanez v. Pence v. Bruce

Postby capoltorta » Wed May 06, 2009 7:00 pm

I have some sit/start/trade "problems". Check out my team in my signature. I was lucky enough to get Morneau, Pena, Phillips, Hill, Ibanez, Victorino, Pence, and Bruce on my team, but now I don't know who to start/trade. I have one utility spot so Pena gets that. Hill and Bruce are too good to be on my bench. Should I make a blockbuster trade here, or just stand pat? It's a H2H (holds) league. I'm leaning towards standing pat and rotating them in based on matchups, but I'm pretty weak at 3B with Branyan and Lopez (or am i?). My pitching's already amazing too. Any advice?

Make a trade. Branyan sucks long term (he is curently on my team too)

Get a 3B. Playing match-ups will only drive you crazy and cost you.

Get a 3B or upgrade something.

Problem is, I can't see any of these guys slowing down. I can't trade Phillips since his value is low, and I'm hesitant to give up Hill cause I think he'll keep it up. Same deal with Morneau and Pena, I don't want to lose either. Bruce is also a key guy to have on my team because it's a positional league and he's LF,CF,RF eligible, whereas Ibanez is only LF, Victorino is only CF, and Pence is only RF, so not a bad backup to have you know? If I must make a trade, I'd probably lean towards trading Morneau, upgrading Pena to 1B and Alternating Hill and Bruce in UTIL. Good idea? What 3B could I get for Morneau?
