I know this sounds like a dumb question but I am not planning on dealing Posey, just thinking about dropping him and picking up one of these FAs to fill in for Aramis who is killing my fantasy baseball soul! I'm not ready to give up on him yet but Ive thought about picking up one of these guys either:

Adrian Beltre or Chipper Jones

because of the immediate dividends they would pay me. I don't see myself starting Buster over Mauer or Votto/Konerko. My question is should I hold on to him and see if either him or Mauer would be good trade bait down the road, or should I cut him loose and pick up someone that could help me now? I am first in this 12 team head to head so Aramis is not killing me yet, I'm just dying seeing his production everyday as opposed to these guys in FA.

Keep in mind this is a non-keeper league and this is a holds league. Seeing as how holds count the same as saves I punted saves along time ago (b/c I ended up with Wood, Hoffman, Qualls as my closers) and focus on holds, which i have been winning every week. So Rhodes and Downs are very valuable to me at the moment. Any thouhgts would be appreciated and I will gladly help in return!

You are set at 1B and C. Its non keeper. Just let him go

Non-keeper league and you have Joe Mauer at C anyway? You're overthinking it a bit, IMO. Dump Posey and grab Beltre immediately. He's been hitting the ball well all season and the power is starting to come around. Don't delay, ARam isn't going to help you anytime soon.
