Hey guys,
So here's my dilemma, Ellsbury and Pablo are on the DL for me, and so I've been pickin up players and trying to find a good mix of talent to fill in for me while they're out..luckily I had Wright at 3rd so any position can fill Pablo's spot at UTIL..the question is who? I picked up Bryce Harper BUT this is NOT a keeper league, no one else jumped for him and he has not done much to impress me besides steal home against Hamels...he's been striking out recently and is not helping me that much at all , so I want to drop him for one of the following and I need some advice:
OF - Raul Ibanez (bats in a great lineup and has 7 HRs and 21 RBIs) - I like his position because of the short RF porch too, but can he be consistent enough???
OF - Allen Craig - I was set on picking him up, especially since that offense is just ridiculous right now but with Berkman back, will his playing time be reduced significantly (I read a few articles saying yes it will be)
OF - Alejandro De Aza - He does not have as much power potential as the other guys, and HRs are worth more than Rs and SBs (obviously), so I don't know about this one as much, but he does seem to be playing very well and hitting for a decent average.
Other possibilities - Kyle Seager (3B), Jed Lowrie (SS, 3B), Will Middlebrooks (3B)
Any opinions would be greatly appreciated, and all help will be returned, thanks!
