Wes Helms worth a look?

Postby boyogold » Wed May 27, 2009 10:48 am

Don't know the extent of Hanley's injury last night yet, but Helms went into third and I'm thinking that he may see some playing time there. Assuming Hanley is out for an extended period of time, is he worth a pickup to drop into third until Beltre heats up a little? I'd move Cabrera to 1st and bench Butler if it was worth it.

12 Team H2H (pts based)
Single = 1
Double = 2
Triple = 3
Home Run = 4
Run = 1
RBI = 1
Walk = 1
Stolen Base = 2
Caught Stealing = -1

My roster
C Mike Napoli (C/U, LAA)
1B Billy Butler (1B/U, KC)
2B Dustin Pedroia (2B/U, BOS)
3B Miguel Cabrera (1B/3B/U, DET)
SS Troy Tulowitzki (SS/U, COL)
OF Josh Hamilton (OF/U, TEX)
OF Shane Victorino (OF/U, PHI)
OF Torii Hunter (OF/U, LAA)
U Jermaine Dye (OF/U, CWS)

P Milwaukee Brewers (P, MIL)

Bn Matt Wieters (C/U, BAL)
Bn Chris Coghlan (2B/OF/U, FLA)
Bn J.J. Hardy (SS/U, MIL)
Bn Adrian Beltre (3B/U, SEA)
Bn Ryan Spilborghs (OF/U, COL)
Bn Philadelphia Phillies (P, PHI)

DL Pat Burrell (OF/U, TB)

You're better off keeping Butler and Cabrera in the lineup. They're both better players than Helms.

Yeah, that's my thought too...but Butler hasn't really been giving me anything...good average and all that, but it's not translating over into points in my league. I wouldn't drop Butler, just stash him and possibly take advantage of Helms' production.

or I guess the wider question I'd have would be who do you think will benefit the most on the Marlins' lineup if Hanley goes down for awhile?
