Atkins and Hardy Dropped!!

[plainyogurt]

So i am in a pretty deep/competitive league and was shocked to see them dropped today. I have the #1 waiver priority and have yet to use it any...
Atkins and Hardy will Def. come around. Once they do I will have great players and trade value to trade them or someone else on my roster(MI or CI) to upgrade SP.. I think it's a no brainer.

Here is my question(s)...Should I pick them up? I think they wont clear waivers. Also...I have yet to use a waive claim, other managers have. If I put in a claim for both, is it possible I get them?? Is it worth to claim both or one?? Which ones?? I would drop carlson and stewart..Help me make a decision.

5x5 standard league.

SP: Matsusaka, Wainwright, Carpenter, Lilly, Maine
Rp: Valverde, Fuentes, Hawkins, Rodney, Colero, Carlson, Dotel
C: Y molina
1st: Miguel Cabrera
2nd: Hill
3rd: Youkilis
SS:Tulowitzki
MI:Matsui/Stewart
CI:Berkman
Util: Fielder
Of: Elsbury, Dunn, nelson Cruz, Span, Pierre

Bench: Laroche, Vlad, Bourne, Alexie Ramirez

Pick up Hardy, he seems to have turned a corner the past few weeks. Drop Stewart, he's a bum.

I hear ya, but atkins has had four solid years in a row

Can I put in two claims and possibly get them both??

Should I wait and see if a SP hits the waivers??

What do y'all think?

[plainyogurt]

I think I am going to put claim for both of them...which one should I do first??

Kind of conflicted here.. Any advice

tough call
you won't get much better players on the waivers during the season i wouldn't think, given the depth of your league

of the 2 players, i think you need hardy more - so yes i would try to get both but try for hardy first

atkins is ok but he will get traded away from coors field later in the season and you do have youk and cabby and berkman and fielder already

please help me with another atkins issue
