First Petco Team/Defense Question

More advice

Postby JohnnyBlazers » Fri Dec 23, 2005 9:29 am

My division rivals have LOTS of LH power hitters so I have to keep some lefties. Perez seems to be the best of the lot and I added Robertson. I have run out of cash quickly and still need to add a piece. So far I have:

Kendall-C
Huff-1b
Loretta-2b
Clayton-ss
Lowell-3b
Guerrero-Rf
Pierre-CF

I added Klesko to be DH, but I still need a LF & I have to upgrade at set-up.

Where would you guys cut back on? I've thought about dropping Lowell, but he kills Lefties and my division rivals have 11 out 18 starters as lefties.

Loretta seems to be a good fit for Petco with all the singles & doubles, but he has a 3 rating @2B & has a big salary.

This newbies head is spinning! help!

Loretta will hit no doubt, but he's expensive. In a pitcher's park, you really need 1's and 2's up the middle. I like Hudson @ 2B, if he's available.

Lowell will hit well, especially with all the LH's. A cheaper alternative @ 3B is J. Hernandez.

I prefer Washburn over Robertson. Cheaper guys like Lee and Dubose are nice to have to throw at these guys @ home.

Still think Zambrano is better off served somewhere else. Glavine or Buerhle are a bit better for you.

I'd also like to see a lefty bat or righty bat that hits RH's well. A cheapy that works for me is Sweeney @ $1.52.

Not crazy about Pierre and his +3 arm in Petco. I love his bat and use hime when I can get him...@ DH.

Another cheap pitcher that did well in Petco for me is Milton.
