Miguel Cabrera vs. Wright.... WHIR

Postby PavanoAllstars » Thu Mar 25, 2010 8:06 pm

Hello all... I can't make my mind up on this one...

I'm in a keeper league with a CI and MI position
My keepers are Fielder (1b), Tulo (ss), and Felix

By swapping draft positions in various rounds to another team I will be able to trade up from ninth pick to 7th pick in the first and will likely have a shot at Miggy.

I was content having the 9th pick and taking Wright (especially with third base being so shallow and I think he's going to rebound) but, given there's a CI spot, am I nuts not to go after Miggy? Is it a stupid move having two first baseman even with the CI spot???

our offensive categories are: sb,obp,hr,r,rbi,triples
offense positions are: 1b,2b,ss,3b,CI,MI,4 ofs, util

THANKS!!!!

With three keepers, you might not get the choice or you might have it made for you.

For me, it's Wright then Miggy; for me, it's position, SBs, OBP, and triples. All of these mean that even with a continued HR disparity, Wright will continue to deliver a lot of value, and he could easily make us all forget his power outage in a hurry.

That's a tough one. I think in a vacuum I would choose MCab over Wright, but considering you already have Fielder, I think I'd scoop up Wright here.

Also, can you trade for another pick and get the both? :)

The link you're leaving in other threads isn't working.......

I wish I could trade for both... but I don't THINK both will be there for me... on the other hand, kinsler or ellsbury would be there in the second round... I think...

I'd go for Wright as well since you already have Fielder. I see him bouncing back and putting up his usual numbers.

I still say Miggy is the answer, its close given your team and the scarcity.

Thanks for help.

I like MIggy. He's such a great player that I would definitely grab him if you can.

Id still go Miggy. Wright has much more risk involved.
