Drop Ankiel for??? WHIR

[sowen246]

16 team mixed 5x5 roto
I have Ankiel on the DL and just lost Manny to his suspension.

M. Jacobs and J. Cust are FA's and could provide power while Manny is down and should be simular to Ankiel.

What do you think?

My roster:

C: K. Suzuki
1b: C. Pena
2b: A Cabrerra
ss: J. Bartlett
3b: C. Davis
of: G. Sizemore
of: J. Anderson
of: R. Ludwick
of: C. Crisp
u: A. Callaspo
P: J. Sheilds
P: E. Volquez
P: J. Jurjens
P: P. Maholm
P: R. Wolf
p: M. Gonzalez
P: T. Hoffman
P: S. Richmond

bn: J. Smoltz
bn: M. Ramierez
bn: B. Meyers
bn: R. Ankiel

I would drop Ankiel for Jacobs probably - don't you have a DL slot for Ankiel?

Thanks.
No DL slot in our league, just the bn.

I picked up Cust since I can slot him in for J. Anderson when he's facing a leftty.

I would take Cust, major factor being his solid batting average. I have Jacobs on my team and I can tell you its an adventure, the guy is very streaky and strikes out a lot. He and Cust will both have around 30 homers at the end of the year with Cust's average being 20-30 points higher.

Help with mine?
