Burrell...? WHIR

Postby wurmz07 » Fri Jul 24, 2009 11:00 pm

Is this guy worth owning? Garrett Jones has been on fire lately, I need the production also.

Would anyone else drop Burrell? I know he can hit 30Hr, but he has done nothing.

How deep is your league?

You can go with the hot hand for now but keep an eye on Burrell if you need some pop. I think he can help out in the power numbers in the second half

Heck, I actually need him to in one league

burrell won't hit 30 homers this year. he only has 6, so i wouldn't worry about dropping him for the hot jones. jones has 10 homers in a month! now, we know he can't continue that pace, but he's showing he's a good hitter. if burrell gets hot in mid-august, like he tends to do, then maybe get him back.

help me please: viewtopic.php?f=26&t=394521

12 team league.

I'm afraid if I wait to long someone else will grab him. My luck he will have a Ryan Braun type 1st season. haha

Jones is 28, and has decent pedigree in the Minors.

Braun was 23, and was a top prospect.

Do not worry that Jones will have a Braun type season.

Help with mine
