Do I need help at SS & 2B ??

[BB1017]

How about Womak... I'm picking in the 16th round. I have Burke at 2nd with a back-up option of Infante, but Infante is my SS. thinking of grabing Womak just so I have a few options in the IF.

another option is use Infante and Burke at 2B and go after another SS....humm Barmes is still on the board as well as LA's Valentin (30HR's in 04)...

Maybe that is the answer... Valentin???

I have Patterson, Hunter, Cameron, Burke, and Infante for SB's

So whats the advice... Grab the extra SS??

Looking at Burnitz also for a few diggers....

if u can get reyes at the end of the draft, grab him. If hes healthy, hes gonna tear it up

[BB1017]

he's gone..gone,

what do you think of these stats for Barmes:


SS Col 490AB 14HR 83R 74RBI 74SO 14SB .286avg

If this is reasonable, I might risk him.

Infante is a nice sleeper this year in my opinion. I would try to get barnes. I tend to gamble on players with much more upside to them. Why continue to draft the guys that always perform below average each season.

If it's not a keeper...Womack should have a lot more value than Barmes will this year. And probably more value than Burke as well.

I'm in a 16 team 5x5 H2H Keeper league (5 keepers)

J. Lopez
Bagwell
Burke, Chris
Dallas McPherson
Infante
Hidalgo
Patterson
Hunter
Mora
Cameron


Pettite
K. Wood
Peavy
Brown
Lilly

B. Wagner
Takatsu


I have a mix of age and youth, I know I'm counting on 3 rookies if I take Barmes but they all seem to have a good chance at their positions.

I'm leaning towards Barmes, He's young and he's playing in Coors.
I understand the Womack argument, anyone in that Yankee line-up is going to look good.


Thanks for the info, any other thoughts now that you can see my line-up???

[slomo007]

I think you've already got your 5 keepers....so don't even look at age.

Peavy, Wood, Wagner, Infante?, Mora?, Lopez?, Burke? McPherson?

I like Barmes as a sleeper, however I think you should take the sure thing in Womack.
