Mauer - Legit Keeper in a 3 Keeper League?

Postby jmcampbe11 » Wed Jun 17, 2009 8:10 pm

10 team roto league in which we keep 3 players each season. Currently in 2nd place, but starting to fade a bit. Also, my worst category, by far, is batting average. With that in mind, should I entertain this offer? If I make the trade my potential keepers will be three of the following (Longoria, Sizemore, Greinke, Mauer).

GIVE - A.Gonzalez AND R.Martin
GET - Mauer AND N.Johnson

MY TEAM
C-R.Martin 1b-A.Gonzalez 2b-Phillips ss-Alx.Ramirez 3b-Longoria CI-C.Jones MI-Stewart (Beckham)
OF- A.Jones, Pence, Dye, Ludwick, Choo Util-Kubel (or Reimold) DL--*Sizemore
SP-Greinke, Gallardo, Lilly, Danks, Jimenez, Millwood
RP-Broxton, Qualls, B.Wilson

I feel Mauer *is* a legit keeper, but this trade depends on how bad you're trailing in BA vs how much you're leading in HRs.

Both players are playing over their heads. If you have a studly lead in HRs, then this could be good for you.

I like AGon over Mauer. Mauer will come back to earth some. He won't be at catcher forever.
