Hello,

I'm a close 2nd in a 4x4 10 team league and was wondering if I should pick up Mo Vaughn from FA. Here are my statistics:

Currently:
6th - BA .271
2nd - HR 184
2nd - RBI 623
4th - SB 85

Here is my batting lineup:

Rodriguez, Ivan C TEX
Marrero, Eli C STL
Bagwell, Jeff 1B HOU
Spivey, Junior 2B ARI
Chavez, Eric 3B OAK
Rodriguez, Alex SS TEX
Anderson, Garret OF ANA
Berkman, Lance OF HOU
Sanchez, Alex OF MIL
Guerrero, Vladimir OF MON
Salmon, Tim OF ANA
Hinske, Eric U TOR
Eckstein, David

If so who should I drop?

doesn't really look like you need eckstein in your lineup. i don't think he'll start above arod, and for now, hinske is better than eckstein

Tough call.

In Vaughn's favor: he's improved quite a bit lately, and a rumored deal to the Red Sox could work wonders.

Against: You don't really need power, and his poor average would hurt.

Taking a chance on Vaughn (instead of Eckstein) is a bit of a risk, but I think it's worth a shot. If it doesn't work out, you won't lose much, and the rewards could be very nice. ;-D
