I have Hunter but Damon is available. I only got 1 of the 5 Starters in the draft so my starting pitching is terrible. My offense is stacked but is missing a lead off hitter. Hunter will help my pitching but Johnny D will get on base and score more runs.
My division has Shea, Sky, and Bank One. Also there are not many Lefties pitching in my division.

your lineup def can use damon. Higher quality than Hunter overall. In a hr park his weak arm won't kill you as much. But you already have a double play machine in Beltre and tejada--hunter hits into a bunch as well.

Damon will produce some runs if you have a decent OB guy in the 9 hole too with his good clutch (it sounded like you wanted to lead him off).

Your pitching's not terrible for US Cell, jaret wright's good, arroyo and villone are passable....but yeah you could afford to pick up 2 more quality starters instead of wood and prior.

stairs is a goner right? :)

went w/ damon and dumped stairs for youkilis. youk will hit in the 9 spot and hopefully get on base alot. hopefully damon wont pass him on the basepaths. as far as starters go, there are none left.
