Jay Bruce for Hamilton in keeper? WHIR

[BillyHallDisciple]

12-team h2h mixed, 6x6 (standard cats + OPS & k/9). Player values increase $5 per year against $220 total salary maximum.

I'm hoping to try and win it all this year, and the Hamilton owner is pretty much out of it and wants to get keeper value. Once Hamilton comes back, he could push me over the top. What do y'all think? Other keeper chips I have are Wieters, Soria, maybe Russ Martin.... Leave a link and I'll help in return...

i think this is a good deal as far as value, but i'm not sold on hamilton coming back and putting up numbers like he did last year. I wouldn't have to of high expectations.

At the end of the day i like to put my all my eggs in the basket and take the risk....i'd make the deal

I've almost lost all hope that Jay Bruce will ever live up to the hype. I now have both since someone dropped Hamilton last week and I just picked him up. I actually have more faith in Hamilton and it appears (as I write this) that he'll be back sooner than expected.

I would for sure do the deal in a keeper just dont expect much out of josh so just make sure your team is deep enough to handle a bad year.

hamilton was not playing well prior to injury and did not play well in the 2nd half last year. i would not trade for him.
