Which SS would you rather have? WHIR

Postby NikeTxGuy » Thu Apr 08, 2010 7:03 pm

Jason Bartlett or Stephen Drew? (I'm looking to drop one of these shortstops for Kelly Johnson).

I'd rather have Stephen Drew for sure. He's much more talented, and finally healthy. Bartlett's 2009 will be a one-year anomaly in an otherwise mediocre career.

I might like drew better as a player aswell.....but to me fantasy-value is all about perception... People think much more of bartlett right now, so if its a choice to drop bartlett, I'd much rather try to deal him while the gettin's good. Hence the "at this point." I expect him to regress aswell.

Is this for the team in your sig? Scutaro?

I like Bartlett more especially since he's in a contract year. Batting leadoff means lots of hits.

Sorry I do NOT have Scutaro... I just updated my team roster below: It's a little bit better.

I like Drew better but Bartlett still holds a good deal of value. Bartlett was a bit lucky last year, but he was also hitting more line drives. Not a stretch to expect 25-30 SB and a .300 average from Bartlett.
