Time to drop Alexei for one of these? WHIR!!!

Postby woowoo crew » Sun May 10, 2009 11:33 pm

Alexei Ramirez is killing me; only helping in SB. There are some good possibilities sitting out there. Should I drop Alexei for one of these guys?
FYI, it's an 8 team league, so I really don't think anyone will waste a waiver on him if I drop him.

I would probably keep Alexei and hope for the best. he is too good of a talent not to break out of this slump. Plus the guys you have to pick from aren't that great. I would stay put with him for a little longer.


thanks for your help with mine

Just hold on to the cuban missile. He has too much talent to just let go. Hopefully Ozzie benching will fire him up.

I mean it really depends on how you are doing in standing. Alexei is a good player. Its not like last year was a fluke rookie year. He was a pretty good player in cuba. If you look at last years splits, he got really hot around the end of May going into June and July after he started off slow. If you are losing badly and cant wait just pick up the hottest 2B. Since you're in a 8 team league theres a lot of options to choose from. Once that player goes lame you can just drop him for someone else. If you're not doing that bad in standings wait a while and see if he get hot around summer time again like last year.
