@Jon: Fowler @Wilsonian: Drop both for Lee and Encarnacion.

By: Wilsonian

Wilsonian — Thu, 15 Sep 2011 17:31:05 +0000

@Grey: thanks man. So you would drop Francisco or Reynolds for Lee? Any drop for Encarnacion Instant Breakfast?

By: Jon

Jon — Thu, 15 Sep 2011 17:30:43 +0000

Grey, would you start Fowler or Choo today?

@Doc Pounder: I'd stick with A-Rod.

Juan Francisco or ARod ROS?

By: Grey

Grey — Thu, 15 Sep 2011 16:44:57 +0000

@Wilsonian: Move Chisenhall into Francisco's spot, pick up Lee...

By: Wilsonian

Wilsonian — Thu, 15 Sep 2011 16:37:28 +0000

@Grey: yeah sorry, I wasn't sure who I should drop for him. My bad. Also didn't know if there were any other moves there.

Dude I have had Romero starting for all 208 1/3 IP — and I check my team ever 30 seconds! I’m in 1st and he’s been my 2nd- or 3rd-best SP year-to-date. In RR Cool Jay we trust!

@Grey Would you start the Scherzerphrenic @ Oak today?

By: Slam

Slam — Thu, 15 Sep 2011 15:38:05 +0000

would you lose cueto or farnsworth at this point? I could really use another starter and having them ride my bench is definitely hurting.

@Emporers Monkey: Nice @Steve: So smooth @Tony: He's easy 2nd round. Where Crawford went this year. @ernie: Sure @Wilsonian: I thought you were picking up Encarnacion... @Sal: Gordon for steals... Chisenhall... @Matt: Lose him. @charlie batch: Ouch @Randy BoBandy: Halladay @OaktownSteve: I think you might be. @Hooch: Cut him. @willie: Sure

Is McCarthy worth picking up today for a spot start vs Detroit?

By: Tony

Tony — Thu, 15 Sep 2011 14:45:16 +0000

@Randy BoBandy: ya Halladay is still #1.... verlander has been sick this year but what if he reverts back to his previous years type ERA? and Kershaw should go to the next level (if there is another level) but Halladay is there and has been, he's the top SP. @OaktownSteve: Yeah I dont kno, I could never take him in the 1st round but later on in the 2nd maybe, early 3rd is where Id actually really consider him, but NORMALLY he's a 8 HR 50 SB guy, all of a sudden he hits 20+ hrs? I think bautista was a weird case, but cargo is a stud, he's missed some games this year, he's 30/30 potential perennially, young and talented in COL, always a bonus.... avg might only be around .280-.290 tho and not the .330 he hit last year...

@Grey

Tulo is hurt. We’ve got less than 2 weeks left. I’m in the thick of a tight battle for first. Cut him loose?

By: OaktownSteve

OaktownSteve — Thu, 15 Sep 2011 14:30:46 +0000

Interesting that Palmeiro could be the poster boy for both erections and ‘roid shrunken nads.

I’m not sure if it’s been said, but Lonnie Chisenhall is just kind of a cool name.

Mark Ellis may be the best defensive second baseman of all time, by the way. And I may be endulging in hyperbole. I may not be. Difficult to say.

@Tony: Ellsbury is going to be an interesting topic next year. In 2009 he hit 8 homers in 691 PAs. Basically insert Ellsbury next year for Bautista and Cargo last year. Outlier season or break out? He’ll go in the first round of almost every draft.

@Rand-inator: Halladay. Like Pujols, until he gives you a reason not to be the top pick, he’s the top pick.

By: Randy BoBandy

Randy BoBandy — Thu, 15 Sep 2011 13:54:27 +0000

Holliday is my other ‘top’ hitter to screw me this year. Not going anywhere near him next year, especially if Pujols is a goner.

At this point, who is the #1 pitcher next season, Verlander or Kershaw (or other)?

never been more saddened by razzball. in h2h finals, and 6 of my players are listed here as likely injured. fml.

By: Matt

Matt — Thu, 15 Sep 2011 13:23:00 +0000

I know Reynolds is a favorite here, but he’s been lifeless the last few weeks and I’m so close to catching the top spot in RBI’s and HR’s and he’s currently the only dead weight on my team. The fear that he could awaken at any time and have a monster 2 weeks scares me, but at this point he’s dead in the water and taking up a valuable spot. If it was your team, would you drop him or keep him?

I scrolled and scrolled and scrolled looking for a Kenley Jansen blurb to no avail. Sad face.

Who do we like for a short day fill-in? Chisenhall, Francisco, Heisey, Chris Davis (if he gets the start) or Dee Gordon? Its H2H points – Gracias!

By: Wilsonian

Wilsonian — Thu, 15 Sep 2011 12:53:27 +0000

Sorry (again) in advance, but I need some lineup help. Here’s my roster in my 16 Team H2H:

C – Napoli
1B – Konerko
2B – Lawrie
3B – Francisco
SS – Scutaro
OF – Gardner
OF – Murphy
OF – Ibanez
UTIL – Chisenhall
UTIL – Reynolds
BN – Tulo
BN – Stanton

These guys are available: D. Lee, Encarnacion, Parra, Raburn, Ross, JP, LoMo, Chris Davis

H, R, HR, RBI, SB, AVG, OBPS are the categories. Do I make any changes? It’s a keeper, so Tulo, Stanton and Lawrie won’t be dropped. I’m not opposed to dropping anyone else.

Should I start Brandon McCarthy today vs DET?

By: Tony

Tony — Thu, 15 Sep 2011 11:41:52 +0000

Avila was a great in season add to my fantasy squad, catcher is not something to worry about next year, i’d say very deep, with posey coming back too….. alot of options.

***GREY: Where do you see ellsbury going next year? He’s putting up the year people basically WISHED crawford would put up.
