what do do with Garrett Atkins??

Postby Philbo135 » Sat May 09, 2009 3:49 pm

Atkins- he has been sitting on my bench most of the year. He's struggling and so I'm plugging in Inge/Branyan at 3rd base most days. Is Atkins worth keeping or should I try and trade him. I don't think anyone would really want him, but as it is he is just kind of hanging out on my team and I think I could use his spot for a pitcher instead, since I need help with those stats. Anybody have thoughts?? please??

Well I would reach out to the league and see if he has any value to anyone, and then work from there to see what you can get.

The likely scenario though is for you to hang onto him and hope he heats up.

I agree with this. He has nowhere to go but up, and since he's not in your starting lineup anyways, he's not hurting you when he's cold.

Help?

just try tossing some offers around. Hes playing badly but he still has a track record. Theres also a chance of him getting traded mid season, and if he turns out like matt holliday.....
