WW Decision: Dukes or Coghlan

Postby boyogold » Wed Jun 10, 2009 9:01 am

I'm smack in the middle of the standings in my league and it's time to cut some dead wood that I'd been holding onto hoping they did something amazing.

12 Team Mixed H2H Weekly Roster
Single = 1
Double = 2
Triple = 3
Home Run = 4
Run = 1
RBI = 1
Walk = 1
Stolen Base = 2
Caught Stealing = -1

My roster
C Matt Wieters (C/U, BAL)
1B Miguel Cabrera (1B/3B/U, DET)
2B Dustin Pedroia (2B/U, BOS)
3B Adrian Beltre (3B/U, SEA)
SS Troy Tulowitzki (SS/U, COL)
OF Jermaine Dye (OF/U, CWS)
OF Shane Victorino (OF/U, PHI)
OF Torii Hunter (OF/U, LAA)
U Adam Kennedy (2B/OF/U, OAK)

P Milwaukee Brewers (P, MIL)

Bn Mike Napoli (C/U, LAA)
Bn Gary Sheffield (OF/U, NYM)
Bn J.J. Hardy (SS/U, MIL)
Bn Billy Butler (1B/U, KC)
Bn Ryan Spilborghs (OF/U, COL)
Bn Philadelphia Phillies (P, PHI)

DL Pat Burrell (OF/U, TB)
DL Josh Hamilton (OF/U, TEX)


I picked up Kennedy and Sheffield because they were hot. I don't know much about Kennedy (anybody?), so I'll see how he plays out. Sheffield is as good as dropped unless one of the other managers miraculously accept the trade offers I'm desperately sending. I'm also getting rid of Butler and probably Spilborghs. Even though neither are in the top 10 on the wire:

Jason Giambi (1B/U, OAK)
Ben Francisco (OF/U, CLE)
Scott Hairston (OF/U, SD)
Andy LaRoche (3B/U, PIT)
Mike Jacobs (1B/U, KC)
Marlon Byrd (OF/U, TEX)
Hideki Matsui (OF/U, NYY)
Placido Polanco (2B/U, DET)
Fred Lewis (OF/U, SF)
Alberto Callaspo (2B/SS/U, KC)
Juan Rivera (OF/U, LAA)

...I'm debating picking up Coghlan and/or Dukes before they start heating up and get noticed.

Which would you go for? Anybody on that list look better? Anything my team needs that anybody notices?

WHIR, but there's a reason I come to you guys (the experts) for help....

I would get Dukes and Marlon Byrd (Josh Hamilton's replacement).
