How to improve my team; replace Magglio Ordonez... WHIR 100%

Postby FantasyStud » Sat Jun 20, 2009 10:36 pm

Hey all,

I'm in a 10-team, competitive roto style keeper league. I'm in 5th place, yet "only" 12.5 points out of 1st. I feel like I still have a legit chance, since no team is running away with the league - plus, I won the league last year.

Here's my team...

C-Bengie Molina
1B-Ryan Howard
2B-Dan Uggla
SS-Jason Bartlett
3B-Pablo Sandoval (1B, 3B eligible)
OF-Magglio Ordonez
OF-Curtis Granderson
OF-Jacoby Ellsbury
OF-Johnny Damon
OF-Andre Ethier
UTL-Miguel Cabrera (only 1B eligible)
UTL-Clint Barmes (2B, SS eligible)
DL-Jose Reyes
DL-

Starters-CC Sabathia, Justin Verlander, Wandy Rodriguez, John Lackey, Ryan Dempster, Gil Meche, David Price, Mark Buehrle
Closers-Joakim Soria, Francisco Rodriguez, Mariano Rivera

Prospects can be called up at any time, since this is a Keeper League
Prospect-Carlos Carasco
Prospect-David Price
Prospect-Matt Wieters
Prospect-Dexter Fowler
Prospect-Brett Anderson
Prospect-Pedro Alvarez

Scoring:
Runs 6.5/10
HR 8/10
RBI 6/10
SB 8/10
BA 5/10
K 10/10
W 8/10
SV 3.5/10 (Recently got Soria off the DL and traded for Mariano so that should change)
ERA 2/10
WHIP 4/10
TOTAL 61/100

Just want to know what I can do to improve my team. WIth Magglio being benched, I'm contemplating dropping him but I'm not sure which OF to add. The best options are Milton Bradley, Rick Ankiel, Randy Winn, Skip Schumaker, Cody Ross, Jeremy Hermida, JD Drew, Jack Cust, Kendry Morales, Marlon Byrd, and Willie Bloomquist.

Thanks for any input - and WHIR Promise!

I would drop Magglio and pick up either Cody Ross or Morales. Ross probably gets a few more at-bats than Morales, but both have good pop. I'd prefer either to Magglio. Good luck.

I would pick up Morales. He is quietly having a nice season and is on pace for 25 and 100.

please help

at this point Mags is dead weight - might as well go for Morales or the hot hand for the week
