Nixon

Neither one is worth drafting before the 20th round.

Nixon will probably be the better bet to at least play 100 games.

Something is really weird about Nixon's issues last year... The guy got hurt driving to ST. With that said, I would stay away from him....

However, There is no way Dye ends up on my team (been burnt there before)...

If i was FORCED to take 1....I go Nixon. He could end up with 30HR and 110 RBI (in that line-up....he could be SICK)

I went with Dye. he had a good first half last year and I think if he can stay healthy he'll have the better stats.

I think believe Nixon will have a JD Drew bustout type year. Whether it's this year or not, who knows.

Dye's a White Sox now right?? I suppose he could put together a good 1/2 a year there before getting hurt. But there's really no "sell high" point with him (like Drew this past year) -- because you expect him to get hurt later.

I'd take Nixon.

No way I would ever choose Dye over Nixon. Dye is a player who still gets drafted on his potential, and I would never draft him, even with a gun to my head. Nixon will never get 110 RBI, as he hits like 6th or 7th in Boston, but you can pencil him in for 25 HR,90 RBI with a .290 BA. Dye has the body of a 79 year old geriatric man who needs a Lark to get around. Avoid him at all costs!
