Jay Bruce or Corey Hart in RF?

I've got Jay Bruce starting for me in RF, but I'm not sure whether to keep him. I'm considering trying to go after Corey Hart. I like Bruce's defense (1 with a -4 arm) and his LH bat to some extent. (Others in my lineup include Paul Konerko, David Ortiz, and Jose Bautista.) The problem as I see it is that Bruce doesn't hit RH pitching all that well and has less than 600 plate appearances. (I'm starting to get overly paranoid about injuires ever since I lost Manny Ramirez and the championship in an earlier league.) Hart's defense isn't as good but it isn't terrible either (3, e2 with a -1arm) and he seems to have a little more pop in his bat. I'm playing in Ranger's Ballpark. The other teams in my division play in Minute Maid, Ranger's Ballpark and Petco. Most of the starting pitching in my division is RH.

I didn't get Choo and now don't know what to do.

Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Hart will be very productive in Rangers Ballpark, Bruce does not hit righties well at all, and is injury prone.
gotta have hart.

Remarkably Hart is 1 for his last 36 on my team.
I am new to this online game. Not sure how some of you guys can take these sorts of things in stride.

I have Jack Cust on 2 teams in the '10 season. Both parks are hitters parks. In one he is batting .271 up from around .200 early on. In the other he is batting .344. Sometimes the dice just don't hit the hitters cards enough. I always hold on to the card if thier is nothing better and you can lose up to 20% of your salary to drop the player. It is better to have a player go 1-36 than the team go 2 wins and 15 losses. I have had teams just lose forever after starting out really well.

Short story long You just never know but having the best players you can out there is your best chance.

Remember that the 7 has the most chances to hit followed by the 6-8, 5-9, 4-10, 3-11 and the 2-12 can only happen one way. Snake eyes or box cars.
