Was offered to me. What should I do? I have Tori Hunter Denard Span and Hunter Pence in OF and berkman and Votto at 1st and U so im set on 1b. Is it worth it, is kemp gonna put up 25pts weekly in h2h like i know howard will when he gets back?
C: Posey 1B: Votto 2B Zobrist 3B: Miggy Cabrera SS: Tulo OF Chris Davis, Martin Prado, Alex Rios U: Konerko/Hunter SP: Lester, Peavy, Dempster, Kuroda, Matt Moore (Reserve: Beckett, Cahill, Lincecum, Hudson) RP: Putz, R Soriano
I would do this. Kemp is a huge upgrade on Span, and even a sucky year for him is not bad (60 runs and RBIs, 18 HR, 16 SBs so far). You also get production now, rather than waiting for Howard to come back, and you don't have the risk that Howard is out for longer than the minimum, or is not totally right when he comes back.
Agreed with Votto at 1B this gives you a solid and potentially big upgrade at OF. Unless of course you can start both Votto and Howard once he's back, but you didn't say that, so I'm assuming not.
