Andrus or Barmes for the fantasy playoffs?

[angels7777]

Ok I decided to keep Matsui and McClouth for the stretch run. Now I need to decide between Andrus and Barmes by today... I have a 1st round bye and so week 2 Barmes has to face @SF (lincecum) and @AZ while Andrus is against Oakland

Barmes power fits in better with my team, but Andrus is hitting at the top of the order with an apparently easier schedule - not sure who to go with here


5x5 H2H NON-KEEPER
12 Teams - 25 man roster

C Sandoval
1B Konerko
2B Uggla
3B M-Cab
SS Furcal
OF Grand
OF G. Jones
OF Kubel
UTIL Helton
BN Willingham

SP - Oswalt, Gallardo, Vazquez, C. Lee, Wainwright, Nolasco, B. Anderson, Holland, Bailey
RP - Capps, Jenks, Howell, F. Morales, Hawkins

what do u guys think?

[MadDog36]

I'd dump Holland, Willingham, and Furcal for Andrus, McClouth, and Matsui.

[JTWood]

Matsui & McClouth

[Snakes Gould]

Matsui & McClouth

same here.

[angels7777]

final decision needs to be made today

[sigriffey]

Agreed -- Matsui and McLouth here

[bazzy_51]

ok ill add another one for Matsui and McLouth...

now reading this right you need to choose between Barmes and Andrus correct?

If your not worried about position eligibility that you would get with Barmes then i would go with Andrus. Elvis has more opportunity and imo will have the better lineup going down the stretch. Also like you said the schedual favors Andrus in this up coming week.

I just picked up Andrus, batting second in front of Kinsler and a slew of hitters. Very nice

Depends on what you need. Barmes has more pop than Andrus, but you'll have to deal with the cold snaps. Andrus has more SB potential and he isn't quite the average liability.
