How good is Pierre?

Postby capoltorta » Sun May 10, 2009 6:14 pm

I'm in a 9 team league, and stacked, so I'm not sure who to drop, if anyone for the smokin' hot Pierre right now?

Disregard my signature, my team is:

R.Martin, A.Gonzalez, B.Phillips, M.Cabrera, J.Rollins, J.Dye, C.Hart, M.Ordonez, J.Bruce, J.Dye, A.Hill, A.Lind, M.Ramirez(NA)
J.Johnson, J.Shields, J.Vazquez, R.Dempster, B.Jenks, H.Bell, F.Fransico, K.Wood

Somebody stop me before I drop Manny outright because it's ROTO. Part of me would rather drop Magglio or Dempster or Lind though. I NEED his SB badly! Who would you all drop?

Pierre should not be owned in a 9 team league.......

But he's on fire, and I need his SB. What has Magglio done to deserve a spot in a 9 team league so far?

To that question, I answer this. What has Pierre done to deserve a spot in a shallow 9 team league? 6 runs 6 rbi and 2 sb with a .400 average in 45 or so at bats?

I know, but in such a shallow league, I even have Bruce and Lind filling in for Magglio, who hasn't done anything yet and looks like he's over the hill, and am desperate for sb already with rollins sucking so much. Mags is actually hurting my team because i'm missing out on Bruce and Lind on my bench too you know.

couple more hits, 3 runs, an rbi and stolen base for pierre again today, and 45 or so more games of him leading off for the best team in baseball. Not to mention his upside, which HAS been proven in the past.

There's a simple solution to that problem, and that is to start Bruce or Lind over Ordonez, really its not that hard. Every player on your team has more value than Pierre.

I do start Bruce over Mag, but he's wasting space on my bench too cause I doubt he'll even hit 25 HR and 80 RBIs this year, so why not ride the hot hand over the next 50 games or so for a stat I need.

I disagree with you, but it sounds like you've already convinced yourself it's the right move.

will you concede that he'll probably hit leadoff for the dodgers until manny returns, if not longer?
