14 Team H2H 6x6 (adds ops holds) daily changes 40 man rosters C 1b 2b 3b ss lf cf rf UT UT sp sp sp rp rp p p p
$300 CAP and $ for only one of these moves.

1. adding SS Reyes with the hamstring. Have Jeter, but no backup (next availables would be O Cabrera level) Figgins/Victorino lead my SBs augmented by Mark Reynolds/Utley/Jeter)

2. adding SP Verlander. Have mediocre sp staff (Lee/Jurrjens/Dempster/Hudson/Liriano/Latos and blah, blah there)

3. upgrading to Braun from Carlos Lee mostly impacting runs, HR, OPS (basically my best power is Mark Reynolds/Utley/Justin Upton/Quentin/Lee/Ludwick)

1. middle value, you might gain 25 SBs, but if Jeter goes down you can find some on the wire
2. least value, with holds as a cat, a mediocre staff can still give you enough points in pitching
3. most value, face it - Braun is a stud. ;-D

Yeah, go with Braun.

There is no reason to consider adding Reyes if you have Jeter already. Maybe try and pick up Ramirez who should have 2B and SS elig.( I think) to use as backup if needed.

love Verlander too, but you can always move a bat for pitching help in season. it would cost a left nut to pick up a bat like that though.

I'm going with the best player available to you in these deals who is Braun. Verlander while a solid pitcher isn't a huge priority to you so he gets least value.
