Which SS would you pickup as a replacement?

For me, it's Adam Jones. He seems lost now, and Quentin could go on a nice tear, Hart's on one already, and F-Gut is chugging quietly towards 15/15.

Even though I just dropped him in one league (with OBP), Ian Desmond is a nice flier. He is another 15/15 candidate, and that little incremental production is nice for the short term.

I'd drop the Big FraGu. Adam jones has more power upside while squeaking in double digit steals. Its ugly right now, but Jones is sitting on your bench.

As far as SS, Cabrera brings a little more average and R/RBI opportunities than Desmond. I'd take a chance on him.

Agreed, I don't mind the upside of Desmond or the stability of Cabrera. I would go with the upside.

so that makes it 2 for Adam Jones and 1 for FraGu. Have to set my roster by this evening for the upcoming week so I'd appreciate a few more responses before I make my decision.
