If you lead in RBI, does this mean.......

[kingmike74]

Does leading in RBI this time of year mean you have a decent shot of finishing in the top 3 or so in HR?

I's in a 10 man, 5x5 league and trying to calculate whether I need HR's or SB's more.

I am 1st in RBI

5th in HR

5th in SB

I use my UT for the flavor of the week/month the help in either SB or HR, what do you think?

Harang and Verlander's struggles, coupled wiht Furcal and Tulo's injuries are probably what's keeping you out of first place. Verlander is starting to get better, and Harang isn't really having a bad year, he's just not getting any run support.

Tulo was a freebie I snagged off the wire so he really has nothing to do with my team performance.

I use 1/2 UT spots for spot starters. Does my team look like I should look for SB guys, or HR guys for my UT spots. I grabbed Beltre off the wire last week also becasue when he gets hot, he gets frekin hot but the way is playing now would falt kill me.

I will probably be forced to drop him soon.

I'd see if Fred Lewis is available in your league, he's available in mine and will has 41 R and 12 SB.
