Which 1B from the Waiver?

Postby nastys » Tue May 19, 2009 6:54 pm

I have Nick Johnson at 1B currently, but I'm thinking of swapping him for a waiver wire alternative...heres whos available:

Derrek Lee
Paul Konerko
Billy Butler
Kendry Morales
Chris Duncan

as well as the following players on the DL that I could get and stash away for later in the season.
Conor Jackson
Carlos Delgado
Carlos Guillen


Should I stick with Johnson or go for a waiver wire replacement? If I go with the waiver replacement, whos the best available 1B ? What about the DL options are they worth stashing?

Any advice is much appreciated.

Thanks.

I would pick up Konerko out of that group. He's been consistant at bat so far and only tends to get better later in the season. He's only two years from 30 homers and injury slowed him down last year.

Lee would be my second choice, but the rest of that waiver is garbage.

good Luck.

I agree. I'd go with Konerko. Johnson just doesn't have enough pop.

Help with mine? viewtopic.php?t=385961
