who would be a better fit in SAFECO?????

kotsay of finley

well heres a new spin on this.....

i have hafner as my dh....kotsay in cf.....

bernitz just got released.......right now im have alexi rios slated to play rf....

i could dump hafner.. pick up bernitz.....

dump kotsay and pick up beltran.......

and use swisher as my dh or pick someone else up with some pop... im playing in safeco so beltran and bernitz would hit for power

i hate to give up hafner for bernitz.....but i tinhk the upgrade from kotsay to beltran would be big and it gives me a little more balance in my lineup , as i have only to rh starters

I've had them all. Finley, was happy with...in Petco by the way. Kotsay, was happy with. Also in Petco. Now I am in Dodger stadium and I have Beltran. His OBP is pathetic but he has almost 40 runs a quarter through the season and has I forget how many stolen bases, but I'm likin it.

thats good i actually released kotsay and picked up beltran just a shor ttime ago...should help me with HR's and def

Beltran almost ALWAYS underperforms, same with Burnitz. Sure he'll jack some out, but his ba and obp has been downright pathetic.

I'd perosnlly stick with kotsay and hafner, but that's me. Or downgrade Hafner to Burnitz, and pick up someone else at DH.

I prefer Kotsay

I think I prefer Kotsay too but like Beltran's arm and base stealing. I was wondering...should I put Beltran near the bottom of the batting order? I got him in second right now and his OBP sucks.
