How do I make this work...? WHIR

Postby lachlanoddy » Sat Jul 04, 2009 1:35 pm

There are two guys on FA that I want to have;

1) Ryan Doumit... I can stash him on my DL and wait and see with him. Currently I have Martin and he is KILLING me.
2) Andrew Bailey... this guys should NOT be a FA!!! I already have 4 closers though and trying to trade one so far as proven fruitless. I have no problem carrying 5 closers... :)

Clearly I need to drop someone, then pick up Doumit and put him on my DL, then pick up Bailey to fill that empty spot... but who do I drop...??? I can't see anyone I would want to outright drop (see roster below). I thought about dropping Martin and picking him back up assuming no-one picks him up, but then I can't get Bailey... Should I drop Gavin Floyd...?

Leave a link and I will get back to you

I don't think you do anything. You're right, Bailey should not be a FA,but with 4 closers already on your roster you don't have a need for him that would call for dropping another servicaeable player for him. As for Doumit, keep watching his progress in the minors and then drop Martin for him outright if that seems like what you want to do is 3-5 days.

Help with mine please? viewtopic.php?t=392491

matt garza seems like the clear drop from your team. not sure if getting those two players is worth garza but if you want to drop someone he is it.
