Dropping a player for Cody Ross, Need Help

Postby labarbatron » Thu Jun 21, 2012 8:47 pm

Hey guys,

I think Cody Ross is the real deal, he's hitting like crazy even after the injury. Really want to pick him back up but I just can't decide who I should drop. I was thinking about dropping either Burnett or Plouffe. Don't think Plouffe is going to be relevant much longer. What do you guys think. Here is my team

10 Team, ROTO League, Non-Keeper

C Carlos Santana, Cle C, 1B
1B Albert Pujols, LAA 1B
2B Jose Altuve, Hou 2B
3B David Freese, StL 3B
SS Jose Reyes, Mia SS
2B/SS Brandon Phillips, Cin 2B
1B/3B Trevor Plouffe, Min SS, 3B, OF
OF B.J. Upton, TB OF
OF Ichiro Suzuki, Sea OF
OF Martin Prado, Atl 3B, OF
OF Shin-Soo Choo, Cle OF
OF Michael Morse, WSH 1B, OF
UTIL Billy Butler KC, DH
Bench Joe Mauer MIN C, 1B
Bench Carl Crawford*, BOS OF
DL Evan Longoria*, TB 3B

Cole Hamels, Phi SP
Dan Haren, LAA SP
Stephen Strasburg, Wsh SP

"Dropping a player for Cody Ross, Need Help"

That last part is kind of an understatement! :-D :-b

I don't see anyone that I would drop for him. You can't drop Plouffe yet, as long as he keeps hitting HR's. The guy I might consider dropping him for the most might be Ichiro. :-o

Once/if Ells and Craw come back, Ross might not have a starting gig anymore either.

I don't think I drop anyone of those players for Cody Ross, I don't trust Ross and like ensanimal said he may not even have a everyday spot if the red sox get healthy, which it looks like they are, plus I think think that Plouffe is valuable cause of the HR's but also because of position eligibility. I would not drop any of them for Ross.

Help me out

Yeah not dropping Ichiro, if anything i'd trade him for someone just as useless. I'm still really unsure about Plouffe. He could just be another month long wonder. I just need some more power on my team and I'm becoming impatient.
