Votto Dropped? Add him? WHIR!!!

Postby WhipperSnappers44 » Fri Jun 05, 2009 10:53 am

Hey all....someone dropped Votto in my league (12 Team Yahoo H2H 10 CAT 5x5) and I was wondering if I should pick him up? (I don't need him since I have Howard at 1B but Hill has been in a drought and has been playing my Util spot so maybe Votto could go into that spot if/when he returns or he could be good trade bait....what do you think and who should I drop for him? (Currently in 2nd place but moving up fast and only behind by 2.5 points/games). Thanks and WHIR!!!

My Team:

J.Mauer, R.Howard, I.Kinsler, R.Zimmerman, M.Tejada, N.Cruz, N.Markakis, B.Inge, L.Scott...Bench (Lind, A.Hill, Ellsbury)
Pitchers- S.Kazmir (DL), T.Hanson, M.Capps, M.Rivera, M.Garza, J.Jurrjens, J.Verlander, K.Slowely, G.Sherrill, D.Price

Thanks for the replies.....personally I would like to keep Inge due to his multiple positions and I still think he is great. I would however like to drop any of the following so who would you choose or would you stick with something else?

Thanks again and WHIR!!!

Guys I would drop if have to:

Ellsbury, T.Hanson, M.Capps, M.Garza, J.Jurrjens, K.Slowely, G.Sherrill,

Thanks again!

yeah you definitely should pick him up. Even if he doesn't do anything for awhile, its worth storing him on your bench.

For sure snatch him up. Drop Sherill. Just out of curiosity, keeper league or re-draft?

So.....I'm thinking to drop Sherrill....is that right? I figure I am doing well in Saves and Wins but Capps scares me and all his injury problems so.....

I was also thinking about Hanson just because we don't know what he will do yet and I just picked him up off the WW (actually grabbed him in all 3 of my leagues before anyone else had the chance)!

BTW.....this is a redraft league! (also, I haven't made any trades at all since this league nobody wants or has done any trades....either they are scared or they are a bunch of Pus**'s!!!)....so yes....I drafted them all!

Thanks again!

I have Hill on my team and he is sinking faster than a fat chick in a hot tub, I would think about dropping him for Votto. Or else dump Inge for him since you have Mauer, in any event he has to be picked up.

Help with mine?
