Akindian - First 2 LH SPs and now iron hands Durham and 2B...your killing me... :D ...Both moves are sharp departures from my normal conservative strategies...stay solid up the middle and be careful with LH SPs...I stopped there for now and I'll see how things develop. I already have a significant PWR advantage over other ballclubs in my division. I should be AOK at home producing runs. I'll wait and see if I can pull off a RF move later in the week. Thanks for the advice. LA Bear

Just giving another opinion, it's ok if you want to ignore it :P

If it were my team I would go with

McCann, LaRoche, Duhram, Tejeda, ARam, Scott, Duffy, Ordonez, Alou (DH)

No matter what you do bonderman to me is a much better choice (and cheaper) than Westbrook.

back to the durham debate...

i show in us cell vs rhp.

durham ops .999
iguchie ops .872

the difference in defense is worth around of .071 of ops so you can add that to iguchi or deduct from durham....

then you gotta factor in that durham is positive clutch AND has 15 clean xbh in the cel AND has over 25 base hits vs rhp.

Then you start looking at his left side! especially against your division.

You guys are awesome. There is no debate. I looked at the numbers too, and then I quickly scooped him up. Until 2007, I've never started less than a 2 at SS or 2b...now this is my 2nd team in a row with a 3 at 2B. I guess that I just have to get use to it. I totally agree that Duhram's a great fit for this field. I might finish 71-91, but it will be fun to watch the box scores.

It definitely breaks some paradigms.
