Postby drcgull » Wed Mar 03, 2010 2:09 pm

I am torn on this decision and think its very close-Does anyone have a strong opinion on who has more value?
Thanks

I like Roberts only because he's at 2B, and you can get much better at 1B than Kendry.
I guess there was no curse... Boston just sucked for 86 years...

A lot depends on how big league is and other 1B and 2B's saved.

If you can keep 3 or 4 years I'd go Morales since he's 26

Roberts at 32 is on a decline, but if this is just for this year, I'd go with him.

thanks for the input
the details are its a 10 team mixed league- I could potentially draft a better 1st or 2nd baseman w an early pick so it really comes down to who would you rather have on your roster for this season
thanks again

I like Morales as your keeper. Age is on his side. He will improve and Roberts will regress. I like Kendry for 80/30/100/.290 this year with possible upside to those #s.

good luck

I'd go Morales, but it's close. True Roberts SB have declined the last 3 years, but he's still a top a decent Baltimore lineup and 2B is a bit shallower than 1B. Morales only has one great year under his belt, but he should be solid this year.
