I'm sure some will say Borbon, but Pierre is your man here.

Look at it 2 straight years of under 400ABs and the guy still stol 30 and 40 each year. Give him 600+ABs and hes damn near a lock for 50SB. Health is no concern with him, since getting a fulltime job with Colorado in 2001 he has never missed more then 10 games in a season, and had a string from 03-07 where he played every one of the 162 game schedule. I really have high hopes for Pierre this year, I think its time he gets to say 'I still have it all and more' and goes for 60SB, 100+R and bats for .300, not to mention with fulltime ABs that he will get in Chicago he has a legit shot at getting back to that 35-40RBI status.

I think Juan is the best option of the 3, tops Gardner in average and lineup order, tops Borbon in average at least and I'd put money on topping him in SB and R also.

Help me out...

Pierre is more proven and I think for a single year league, he will out produce. That said, neither are hitting well yet.

Pierre - playing every day, proven track record.
Gardner - benched at the moment against LHP, there is a chance that could change.
Borbon - unproven, but will get every chance.

Redraft:

Pierre
Borbon
Gardner

Dynasty:

Borbon

Yeah, that's pretty much where I'm at too, except that I'd still take Pierre in Keeper formats where I'm pretty sure that I won't be keeping any of the above (call that something in the ballpark of 5-6 keepers or less)
