Dickey for Joey Bats

Postby Tosabigdog » Wed Feb 13, 2013 3:50 pm

5x5 mixed 11 team keeper. $310 cap, keep 11

Given current keeper list, would you trade Dickey ($6) for Bautista ($16). I don't think Dickey can repeat although I think pitching half his games indoors will help him. I'm not sure about Bautista's wrist other than he said he'll be ready to go on opening day.

Hamilton $21
Willingham $ 6
Encarnacion $6
Pedroia $16
Rutledge $6
Mauer $21
J. Montero $11

Kershaw $26
Dickey $6
Medlen $6
Fister $11

Yeah I would make that trade. I think you are getting better value out of Bautista then what you would be getting from Dickey.

Another +1 here for Bats. $10 isn't going to make or break you.

Always take hitter over pitcher, even for the extra $10.

yeah I'd take that deal and punt fister for bautista and you only go put really just a few bucks not even 10 remember the difference in fister+joey bats is a lot lower than you realize.
The best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be!

Bautista is worth the risk and I think you're right about Dickey.
