Drop Jones?

Postby cws5887 » Wed May 05, 2010 10:48 am

I have Adam Jones, grady Sizemore, BJ Upton, and Jayson Heyward in my outfield. Asdrubal Cabrera has a tweaked groin and will be out for a few games. I am considering dropping Adam Jones, who has been terrible, for Alex Gonzales or Ryan Theriot. Jones has done nothing this year, and it has been hard to keep his this year. I also have lance Berkman and just picked up paul Konerko, but do not want to drop them until Konerko gets cold or Berkman gets going. Any ideas? Is Jones a must keep based on one year?

hate to say drop jones but the only other option is to wait out cabrera injury. I think I would hold out cabreras lost numbers vs potential adam jones numbers risk reward looks good

I think I would drop Cabrera. It is has only been one month and Jones has a lot of potential. Plus I think if you drop Jones, another team will pick him off the WW but Cabrera is likely to clear waivers so you can always grab him back up.

Would you rather have Alex Gonzalez or Ryan Theriot than Cabrera? Cabrera has not been great this year, because the Indians stink.

Should Cabrera be dropped for Theriot or Gonzalez, or will they fizzle in the next month?
