J. Jurrjens for J.Bruce? WHIR

Postby Brave New One » Tue Apr 06, 2010 4:02 pm

I give Jurrjens for Bruce. 12 team, non keeper. I have a solid staff, but could use more pop in line-up. Fair? Thoughts? WHIR

Its a tough call. Bruce is a high potential guy that didn't show it last year. He could go either way. Have you tried to shop Jurrjens around for other bats? If you are very desperate for hits do it; but Bruce is a guy that is tough to project though.

If you have time...

Bruce has more going for him, I'm personally feeling a break out season...

should I trade pujos for more pitching?

Bruce should rebound from last year - I am personally worried this year about Jurrjens arm

Bruce is the safer choice...

+1

I'm pretty big on Bruce this year. We all know he has 30+ potential in that park and in a pretty solid lineup. If he can hit more line drives instead of flyballs his avg could become respectable to good as well. I've never really been a Jurrjens fan and I can't see him coming close to last year's numbers.

Hitters always over Pitchers, plus I doubt Jurrjens puts up similar numbers as last season and plus he is more likely to get hurt, and you can fill that from the WW.

help with mine?

Thanks guys, Accepted deal. See how it works out. Latos is available, but would have to drop Laporta, SRod, or A.Escobar to grab him. Ah, upside and decisions.
