Thomas or Soriano at DH

[DavidRis]

I'm putting together a minute maid team and have both F Thomas and A Soriano. So my question is, would it be stupid to keep them both and use Thomas as DH vs. Lefties and Soriano as DH vs righties?? The waste would be Thomas would be great s righties too, right? But the injury factor, and soriano is cheap to keep.

Any thoughts?

Punchy

I also have Manny and Glaus for power and Castillo, a 1, at 2b so I don't want to use Sor at 2b.

bad link :?

Just thinking out loud: F. Thomas and Castillo are injury prone. Unless you can make a trade or drop/add to significantly upgrade your team, you may want the expensive insurance policy.

I used Frank as my primary DH in Camden Yards...he hit 46 hrs and had 95 rbi's in 338 AB's...

Also had him in not so hitter friendly Turner with Wily Mo as his back up...they combined for 51 hrs and 140 rbi's!!

He will hit alot of HR's, but will be hurt alot too! So you need a pretty competent Backup, but i really feel he can be a contributor...
