On this I agree; it's the most fun for me as well.

In the spirit of Christmas, I have sent you an offer in our league.

I would bounce David Wright, speed is about gone and not hitting for power like he used to, think people like him because of what he USED to do.

Yep. It doesn't even kill me to admit it anymore. He can still have his moments, but that's about it. Moments.

i do agree that Wright is no longer a good keep... BUT i don't see many good keeps on this team... don't really see an alternative but to keep him... And unless it is a daily league, i would rather keep Wright than D'arnaud

 

[da55bums]

I would keep a 6'3" shortstop who hit 16 hr at age 23 over wright, or even Corey Dickerson with the Colorado effect getting ready to really take off at age 27.

Also, if this is a daily lineup league, it gives them more value imo.

Yes it is a daily line-up league. and we have a utility spot and they considering adding another UT

Keep in mind I was handed this team, did not pick anyone for the draft... I was able to trade to get Degrom and I picked up D'Arnaud and Dickerson and worked a trade for Teheran

 

[redseat]

IF I don't keep Wright, who else should take his place?

Hang onto 'em both.

 

[redseat]

Hang onto 'em both.

assuming they get the extra UT.. If not should I still do it?

You keep both catchers because of the daily aspect... with it being daily it doesn't matter how many games a player misses, since you can always just swap them out... And having 2 startable catchers will easily get you to the maximum games for the catcher position... AND THAT IS HUGE....

Switch Wright out... So now I am keeping both. When it gets switched to "8" supposedly in February who else should I save?

with the daily I would also keep wright... Honestly, with daily I will always keep the highest ceiling guys no matter the risk... injuries are not a huge concern with daily because you just take the player out... Wright is still definitely in your 8 best players...

ok, when it gets to 8, I'll pick Wright

 

[Chef99]

I agree with Milk there. Just make sure you have a backup plan come draft time.

 

[Yellow Fuzzies]

Dickerson over Ramirez, for me. D'Arnaud for the 8th.

Dickerson could be a great power/average guy. I would find a spot for him paticularly if he doesn't get traded from the Rockies.

That's what I am thinking too so I am torn about keeping him.
