Time to dump Markakis? WHIR

Postby espnhereicome » Sun Jul 25, 2010 6:32 pm

I am in an small, yahoo eight team redraft league...

CONSIDERING: Markakis for Delmon Young

My outfielders are Corey Hart, Brett Gardner, and Jason Bay with Markakis and the slumping Brennon Boesch on my bench. I could use the good average from Markakis but I also could all of the other offensive stats and Markakis hasn't offered much there. Some of the OFs available that I were thinking of grabbing are Delmon young and Carlos Quentin.

In a small league, I dont think Markakis will interest anyone else and probably wouldnt even be picked up. Boesch I would also consider dumping even though I see him turning it around.

Do I try to stick it out or make this move now?

Markakis won't interest many people in a big league, much less a small one. Delmon has been having a great year. Do it.

agree. In an 8-team, he's definitely drop-able

thanks for the help with mine

Yup, I'd drop him. One of my leagues is an 8-teamer with active managers and he's sitting out there unwanted. Delmon is playing well. I'd give Boesch a chance to get going again though.

Help?
