No internet all weekend - Do I start AROD friday?

Postby the izzy » Thu May 07, 2009 8:03 pm

Visiting the in-laws in the butt-crack of no where this weekend, so I'll have no internet access Friday thru Sunday. So if I start AROD friday, I can't take him out until Monday (should something happen, or he just sucks). That being said, if I leave him out, I can't put him into my line up until Monday.

So, what to do? Who's is rolling w/ AROD on DAY 1? H2H league. 6x6 w/ OBP being the extra batting category.

Here's my starting roster w/ AROD out (and Manny out - due to suspension).

C: Sandoval
1B: A. Gonzalez
2B: C. Utley
3B: M. Cabrera
SS: S. Drew (DL - ya, decided not to pick up a replacement)
OF: B. Abreu
OF: R. Ludwick
OF: N. Cruz
UTIL: D. Ortiz
BN: C. Davis, Wieters, Alex Rodriguez, Manny Ramirez

so my basic train of thought is bench Ortiz and roll w/ AROD @ UTIL. Thoughts?

This weekend:

NYY @ BAL

I'd probably do it. Ortiz, while he seems to be getting a little better, hasn't been great and will be facing some good Rays pitchers (still holding out hope for Kazmir, at least). It's probably worth a shot. Seems to me like good players usually start off hot post-injury.
