Drop Quentin? Add Beckham/Braden/Adam Jones/Beltre...WHIR

[Tom Emanski AllStars]

So really there's more to my headline. I'm looking to make some FA moves and wondering where i should go. (i know it's a long post, but i need the help, and will return the favor, promise)

My potential drops: (lets just for argument sake say i can't trade these people)

Carlos Quentin
Jay Bruce
Mike Aviles
Stephen Drew

(like Aviles and his soon to be 2b eligiblity a lot, and i like Bruce; Quentin just pisses me off and the only reason i drafted him is because of value at that point in the draft; Drew was a replacment when Rollins went down, but has been hitting pretty good)

Potenital Adds:

Mike Stanton
Dallas Braden
Rich Harden
Clay Buchholz
Brian Roberts (dl)
Howie Kendrick
Gordon Beckham (2b/3b)
Adam Jones
David Ortiz
Adrian Beltre
Rajai Davis
Marlon Byrd
Juan Pierre

I would drop Aviles and add either Adam Jones or Beckham. Jones has a ton of upside. If I chose Beckham, it would be mainly based on his position eligibility.

i am about to drop quentin myself, if you need SBs i'd grab pierre he is really heating up and running at will. I'd wait for more life out of beckham before grabbing him

[Celtics31]

rather than starting another thread (don't mean to hijack this 1)...does everyone agree it is time to drop Quentin?

Even on the bench, he is wasting a spot that I could grab another close or decent SP off waivers.

Thanks for replying to my thread.

If Braden is still available scoop him up no questions asked. Yes, Quentin is expendable for sure and you might want to consider trading one of your first basemen you are kind of limited with only 1 utility slot.

Good Luck.

I can only say Quentin is the man to drop.
