Well, alot of your "typical" guys are gone....i could look at some platoons

piedra/bocachica instead of dunn or rowand

jimenez/platoon instead of boone (but really like that 1 rating,esp in coors)

not alot left...also, i have another coors, an ameriquest and kaufmann in division :)

I don't see Chipper getting on base enough for you, vs. LH's Mike.

Is Klesko available? Or:
Segui ?
Hairston Jr. ?
E. Young ?
Marrero ?

Vs. RH's...

I've never had luck with Bags. I can't see him getting on base enough.

How about?
Thomas ?
Hollandsworth ?
Burke ?
Clark ?
K. Robinson ?
heck even your boy Davanon?

Chipper is my 3B....I don't like him at lead off vs lefties either, but is the best of what i have so far anyway...

Klesko - yes
Segui - yes (ij6...YIKES! :shock: )
Hairston - yes (ij5...again...YIKES! :shock: )
E.Young - no
Marrero - yes (ij4...well, you know...)

I have seen bags used in coors to good effect, but not sure if he was a lead off hitter...probably not! Davanon was my first thought, but he was gone....like i said, i could drop rowand and go with a bocachica/piedra platoon...but

F.Thomas - no
hollandsworth - yes (ij5...YIKES)
Burke - yes (has lead in his pants tho..1-9...and have mauer)
Robinson - gone

:lol:

Klesko will get on base for you, both ways. Not the greatest power hitter, but he'll hit a few.

I use to worry about the INJ thing, but no longer. These guys are priced right, you'll just need a decent back-up.

Marrero kills lefties. You need him ESPECIALLY if you've got 5-6 LHSP's in your division.

Burke can play a few positions for you too. I was just looking for the OBP part. Also, when Mauer goes down Yorvit has to hit RH's... :shock: :evil:

Keep Rowand. He's a nice #2 hitter and plays good D. Just don't ruin him again...

Not crazy about Perez in Coors. You gotta be careful with Haren and Halama as well. But you prolly knew that. 8)

SP's instead of Odalis:
Mulder
Ohka
Bonderman
Cook
Wells
Brown
W. Williams
Beckett (Hard RH hitting teams)
Lieber (Same as Beckett)
Millwood

agree with O.Perez...just wasn't sure who else to take yet!

Dropped him and picked up brown... :wink:

Starters in my division...

RH - 9
LH - 3

hehehe....i have knack for doing that! :wink:

You don't need Marrero then.

I didn't see Gomez initially. Forget what I said before. This looks like a 120 win team with him... :lol:
