Keep Arod or Morse?

Postby mcdablo » Thu Mar 08, 2012 2:38 am

Hey all and thank you for checking out this post. So I have to declare my keepers for my fantasy baseball league in about a week and it's hard for me to decide who to take. I have to decide between Michael Morse or A-Rod for my last keeper.I get to have three keepers. When you take a keeper, you lose the pick in the round that they are ranked in. I have also already decided to keep Brett Lawrie and Steven Strasburg, so it really is just between Morse and A-Rod.

Michael Morse: Great upside, great season last year. Since he was in the bigs, done nothing but hit HR and bat around .300. I'd lose a 6th round pick.

A-Rod: Last year he was terrible, but maybe a crazy rebound? But he's really injury ridden. But man that comeback would be sweet. Also would cost me a sixth round pick.

Thanks for the help. Can't make up my mind here!

Morse, especially since you already have Lawrie at 3rd.

Make Arod someone else's problem. Crazy comeback highly unlikely (fighting age). Limited value for the draft round on either one though.

agree with the Morse choice, especially with Lawrie on board

A-Rod is fighting age and a bad hip


help with mine?

Keeping it unanimous here, Morse over A-Rod.
