Drop LaPorta or Alcides Escobar for Julio Borbon? WHIR

Postby sigriffey » Tue Apr 13, 2010 10:38 am

I know he's playing lousy right now, but Julio Borbon was dropped. Who do I drop to claim him: Matt LaPorta or Alcides Escobar? I lean towards dropping LaPorta, but thoughts?

12 Team H2H League with 6 keepers (a * means the 3-year keeper contract expires after this year -- most of the studs expire in our league after this season)

9 x 9 categories (R, 1B, 2B, 3B, HR, RBI, SB, BB, AVG -- IP, CG, W, L, ER, ERA, K, SV, WHIP)

MY TEAM:

2B Chase Utley*

BN Chipper Jones who is already hurt.
If you are hellbent on keeping him, go with Laporta.

You could use hte speed. Are there any other speed options available?
The best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be!
