I think I like Bay just a tad more. Just seems to be the safer play. He will probably be resigning with Boston too so that should keep his value safe. Can't imagine the Sawx let him go.

Please help

Hamilton. A healthy Hamilton, which he should be, once he gets back.

Hamilton, easily Hamilton. He's young, on a mission and can rake there.

Tough choice. I'd have to say Bay right now. He's been awesome this year and is young. Don't see him slowing down in the Boston lineup.

I would wait till the end of the season, but as of this moment, you have to go with Bay. Hamilton seems to be extremely injury prone, while Bay just keeps putting on consistent #'s.

IF we're talking both healthy...than Hamilton has a much higher ceiling, but tough to count on him to be healthy

Hamilton is the better keeper in my opinion. It's hard telling though how he will finish this year even once this injury business is taken care of. One could argue that Bay will outperform Hamilton when he returns for this year, but next year, I'd rather have Hamilton.

Hamliton can rake but has missed a lot of time in his career thus far. Id go with the consistancy of bay, whos looking more and more studly everyday.
