Use #1 Waiver on S Drew, Kemp, or McCann?

Postby scorer8989 » Fri May 22, 2009 7:22 pm

Should I use my number 1 waiver on Stephen Drew, Matt Kemp, or Brian McCann? I could use a potential stud shortstop, but Matt Kemp almost seems too good to pass up. Same potentially with McCann. I actually have an open roster spot so I would just have to burn my waiver.

I could use some stolen bases as well. Also, someone has offered me Michael Bourn for Felipe Lopez.

What do you guys think? Thanks in advance...

Boils down to needs and the make-up of your league. If your league is active and you think you can swing a trade, I'd claim Kemp, then trade one of your other OFs for either a C or MI. If you don't think you'll be able to make a trade then claim McCann.

PS) How are players this good being dropped in your league?

definitely between McCann and Kemp, you could definitely use McCann behind the plate

Drew has no business being considered with the likes of maccann and kemp available. Tough call between those 2 (neither of whom should ever ever ever be available) but I'd probably go for mccann in your situation.

help with mine?

I thnk Kemp and McCann both improve your team. I would put claims in on all three in this order: Kemp, McCann, Drew. I think Kemp would be your second best outfielder. If you are lucky maybe you get Kemp and Drew both.

Just remember to put in claims for all three. If you're going to last in the waiver line, you might as well triple dip.
