Morales a Keeper?

Postby wags87 » Wed Jul 28, 2010 6:34 pm

I know this is an early question, but I have Kendry Morales. I put him in my DL slot when he broke his leg in hope of an early return, and with his age and stats I thought he might be worth a keeper slot in my 12 team, eight keeper league. Now more of my players are getting hurt and I'm wondering if I can make the decision sooner and get an extra roster space.... Thoughts?

Well, who do you plan on keeping? Are there restrictions on your keepers? For example, if the player is drafted in a certain round is he still able to be kept? There are three UT spots that you start, so even if you can keep Ryan Howard, Morales would be nice to hang out to. You also have a ton of young pitching that you should hold as well though.

DeJesus can be dropped, same for Coghlan since it looks like you could use that roster spot

I'd keep Morales stashed until the end of the season and keeper decisions are made. As of now, I'd keep Wieters, Howard, Victorino, Werth, Ubaldo, Haren, and Quentin with one keeper slot up for grabs and I'd consider Morales with the last keeper.

I wouldn't drop him. If you can't hold him on your roster, you should look to trade him to somebody that will keep him and get something in return for him. He could definitely be a keeper on your team.
