One game of Vlad or possible 2 of Dukes?

Postby BALCO All-Stars » Thu Jun 04, 2009 12:24 pm

Vlad has started to warm up, but I also like the possibility of two games of Dukes, but on the flip side Dukes just came back from the DL and it's no lock that he'll play both games...I'm going with Vlad now...thoughts?

I would go with Vlad. In this situation more AB's could hurt you. One game from Vlad even if he only gets 1 or 2 hits could definitely be better than 2 0fers. This is what I would do.

I almost always take the doubleheader, and Acta was quoted as saying, "He proved last night (what he means to the lineup)." I'd say he's pretty much a lock to get plenty of ABs, and they're against the Giants...

The only downside is if you're worried about BA/Ks. Johnson's his first to face today.

Fortunately, I have both in for my lineup tonight. :P

Vlad with a H, SB, and a R already...

And I normally believe in getting the 2 games as well, but I also don't like throwing "fresh off of the DL" players right back into my lineup either.
