Is Beltre worthless?

He has been absolutely putrid...is it worth dropping him and picking up casey to fill the CI void? Or should I drop Hermida and just bench Beltre? He is killing me...took him as a throw-in in a trade and now it feels like I got the Old Maid.

Re: Is Beltre worthless?

I wouldn't drop Hermida but there are probably better options than Beltre on your WW. Without knowing your team and the league settings, it's pretty hard to say

Re: Is Beltre worthless?

I'd dump him.

Even if he does pick it up a bit, he still plays in a pitchers park.

Picking up Casey to replace him seems like a low risk deal, unless you were thin at 3B, which it sounds like you're not.

Best CI options out there are:

Inge, Casey, Todd Walker, Koskie, Broussard.

Best hitters on my team are: Thome, Jeter, Wright, Holliday, Rios, Pierre, Ramon Hernandez

Just dealt Kearns and Dunn for Johan and Beltre.

12 team, 5x5 rotisserie.

Thanks for all the input.
