Andrus or Escobar in keeper

Postby grandpa » Sun Jan 31, 2010 10:14 am

Which one do you like more long term? I am going Escobar and that would also allow me to keep Coghlan as well as Escobar technically has minor status and will be considered a rookie this year as he had under 130 ABs last year as we are allowed to keep 1 rookie and 2 minors- my other minor is Wade Davis.

Thanks and WHIR

I like Escobar. I think Andrus will hit for a little more power but Escobar will have a better BA and hit leadoff.

Across the board I think Escobar is a bit more complete, but there's no denying the speed that Andrus brings to your roster, in a vacuum call it a toss up.

So the question is not Andrus or Escobar. It is Andrus or Coghlan AND Escobar. That isn't really that tough of a decision, is it?

No, no, you're right. Not that tough. Thanks for making me feel good about it though!

Speed is the only factor of thought for me. I like Escobar as well.
