Rollins down again? Add which SS, drop who?....WHIR

Postby Tom Emanski AllStars » Sun May 23, 2010 11:43 am

Available FA SS:
    M.Tejada
    Ian Desmond
    Yunel Escobar
    Alexei Rameriz
    Starlin Castro
    Felipe Lopez
    Jhonny Peralta
    Marco Scutaro

Those are the available SS, but the problem comes with who to drop to make room for the add. I only have 1 DL spot, and 3 current players on the DL. Berkman rarely sees my lineup, but i'm hoping he'll get hot sometime in the summer and i can use him or votto to trade. My pitching staff is always competitive with mid-tier SP, but I need all of them and all the RP to stay competitive. So I'm at a lost for who to drop. Any ideas?

EDIT: i should also mention that David Ortiz is also available. I've used up my 3 adds per week already, but would adding Ortiz be an option?

10 team - H2H- 6x6 - nonkeeper - daily changes - max adds per week = 3

My attitude when it comes to H2H is to worry last about saves since they are based on chances that may never come during the course of a week and because closer roles can be fluid. Dotel has to go.

Castro. He's been playing very well since his call up and he has no one to lose his job to. He's been hitting a high average and will give you a lot of stolen bases. Tejada is declining in numbers. I would not trust Escobar because he hasn't been playing well before he was injured.

I think I would drop Sizemore. he hasn't been performing well at and hes on the DL. Eihier and Rollins should be owned.

I agree with Castro. He won't help in the power department but should provide a high batting avg and hopefully some speed.

help please:

Thanks for the help on mine. Scutaro in for Cueto. You should be able to find a similar starter if not him again when you get Rollins back.

Can't help but to agree. Makes it almost feel like a cop-out response, simply agreeing with a prior poster, but this is your answer.

Thanks for the help with mine.

cueto has put up better than numbers than Peavy and Burnett. I think you're right Cueto is the one to go, but I hate to drop a guy performing better than other rostered players

Sctuaro is not good...Castro > Scutaro who is batting 9th with Ellsbury back
