RP help

Postby Grizzlies » Fri May 15, 2009 8:13 pm

I've got Bell, Lidge and Valverde(DL) at RP. Lidge has been dreadful so far and I'm getting killed in saves every week. The problem is, I can't see dropping Lidge or Valverde, but would you drop either for any of these guys? I think I'm stuck waiting for them to come around. By the way, holds is a category and I do not have a holds guy.

FA RP
George Sherrill, Matt Lindstrom, Fernando Rodney, Brandon Morrow, LaTroy Hawkins, Jason Motte, Jeremy Affeldt, Mitch Stetter, Andrew Bailey, Ramón Ramírez, Jason Frasor, Michael Wuertz, Rafael Soriano, Scott Downs, Tony Peña

10-team non-keeper h2h league, 1-C, 1-1B, 1-2B, 1-SS, 1-3B, 1-Util, 3-P, 2-RP, 2-P, set roster weekly
we get 30 add/drop moves per year (used 7 so far)
Stat categories: R, 1B, 2B, 3B, HR, RBI, SB, BB, W, CG, SHO, SV, K, HLD, ERA, WHIP

I'm not dropping either for anyone out there but alot of those names need to be owned especially with holds as a cat. Post your roster, maye you have another drop somewhere.

i like morrow out of the choices. downs is a good option too since he's the closer now, and lindstrom is a good option too.

i have valverde and have wanted to drop him myself, but everyone on this board told me not to, so i'm hanging on for now. do what you need to do. if you're in an 8 team league or less, then i think dropping him is okay.

help me please: viewtopic.php?t=385274

Felipe Lopez for Downs and Valverde for Lindstrom.
Put Zambrano on your DL. Lackey is back and will lose his DL elgibility immediately.

your DL guys and pick up guys that can help you. that many #2 closers and top end MRP available your guys may even clear.
The best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be!
