Cameron Maybin just has not been up to snuff this season, and I'm looking to drop him for Revere, who I think could have a pretty good season with around 30 steals, especially if his average sticks around .275 it was in the .260s last year and he's a .300+ career hitter in the minors).

I could also just snatch up Bauer and hope he's good when he comes around, or pick up Lohse whose owner doesn't want him for some reason and dropped him (then he cleared waivers). I'm not wild about him but he's solid. Either option of those pitchers would take away my streaming spot.

Some other players available are Rajai Davis, Scott Hairston

I would definitely grab Lohse if you need the pitching help. He should be owned in all 10+ team leagues.

Yeah, first go and grab Loshe right now...once that's done its a closer call on Maybin and Revere for me. I mean you've got a mean ass H2H team and I'd be shocked if you weren't already in 1st place. But getting back to Maybin, I think he's beggining to turn things around. I would own him if I needed help in steals, but if you have Trout and Gordon you should already be winning that category almosy every week, so do you evenneed Maybin? Cuz that's his only asset in my opinion. Looking at your lineup I would think that his AVG is hurting you more than his SBs are helping. So in that case I'd go with Revere. He's a much better contact hitter and I think he'll keep his average close to .300 all year. He'll also still contribute in the SB category...so Revere is my choice, he's also a way better hitter than Davis. Davis for Maybin would be a total wash...yeah 30-40 SBs is great but eating a .200-.250 (at best) AVG isn't...help with my question too, thanks
