2005 1B Question?

[dingramg]

Both Texeira and D. Lee are available in my 2005 league. I play home games in Turner Field, is there a recommendation on one over the other? I'm leaning toward Texeira because he switch hits, but Lee plays better defense. I know it's vague, but any input would be appreciated.

I have had a good season with each of them, Lee in BOB and Texeira in
Busch.
I am using Texeira again with mediocre results in PNC.
Lee in BoB -
G AB R H 2B 3B HR RBI BB SO SB CS BA OBP SLG
KNI 143 525 82 139 28 2 34 110 59 125 2 0 .265 .347 .520 11 errors
Texeira in Busch-
G AB R H 2B 3B HR RBI BB SO SB CS BA OBP SLG
HIG 156 589 83 148 35 1 33 113 59 160 0 0 .251 .325 .482 15 errors
Texeira currently in PNC-
G AB R H 2B 3B HR RBI BB SO SB CS BA OBP SLG
WIL 116 442 68 110 23 0 24 74 40 123 0 0 .249 .321 .464 4 errors

I believe a tossup because of the ballparks.
Hope this helps some.

My two cents is not to let Lee's better D determine the choice for you. Not such a biggie on the corners. Decide which hitter offensively makes more sense for your team and your park...Teixeira's season stats are superior in average, slugging and on base percentage, and his D is just fine...and for basically the same price...I'd go with him.

I appreciate both or your comments. Thank you.
