Would Julio Borbon upgrade my OF? -- WHIR

by zechs » Thu Apr 15, 2010 9:32 pm

In a 14-team H2H league, Julio Borbon was drafted in the 8th round, yet he sits on waivers after a cold start to the season.

Would he be an upgrade to my starting OF as is? The thing is that my OF is built around speed already. My roster is in my sig. My league scores OBP and HLD.

Thanks in advance for your help.

14tm.,H2H,8x8:
C-BMolina 1B-Votto 2B-Utley 3B-Youk SS-Furcal LF-JDamon CF-BJUpton
RF-ARios UT-DLee BN-Scutaro,CBlake,Schumaker DL-JReyes
SP-SBaker RP-ABailey P-Saito,Hawkins,JJohnson,Dempster,Danks,JShields,Garza
BN-Correia,JDuch,Rowland-Smith,JGarcia

thanks for the help with mine

I'd honestly take a chance on Borbon over Schumaker and possibly over Scutaro. Yes Borbon has been of to a slow start, but I'm confident he will pull out of it sooner than later.

I'd surely drop Schumaker for Borbon.

Thanks for the help.

Dude, Borbon should not be on any waiver wire outside of a 10 man league.

Drop Rowland Smith and get him now!

Dropping Schumaker for Borbon is a pretty easy decision.

Yeah Schumacher isn't gonna do much, and Borbon has loads of upside. Make the move.
