Which SS would you pick up?
I'm in a standard points league with 12 teams...(1 pt for each TB, -1 for K's, 1 for BB, 1 for SB, -1 for CS, .5 for R)
My starting shortstop is Carlos Guillen, who tends to get hurt every year for a little while, and my backup is Stephen Drew, who has done nothing this year...I'm thinking about dropping Drew, but I need a backup... The top waiver wire guys are: Khalil Greene Alex Gonzalez Yuniesky Betancourt Troy Tulowitzki Greene is my first thought since he's been hitting pretty well lately and has a low BABIP (.251). Tulowitzki has also been decent lately, but his BABIP is like .330, and I'm thinking he's due to come back down. Not sure what I think about Gonzalez, although he's in the GABP, and Betancourt doesn't really excite me much... Who would you choose? |

Greene short term, Tulowitzki long term.

Re: Which SS would you pick up?
It's a toss-up between Greene and Tulowitzki. I would go with Tulo but both have hit 4 HR's in their last 7 games

Re: Which SS would you pick up?
Take Greene he plays for a more consistent team
Tulo does have very good upside though what ever happened to Clint Barmes |

Re: Which SS would you pick up?
Is Brendan Harris still available? If so, grab him instead.
Is this a keeper league?

Re: Which SS would you pick up?
Speaking of SS's, who would you target in a keeper league for next season? I'm playing for next season. 6x6 head to head league. Cats are AVG, HR, OPS, R, RBI, and SB.

Re: Which SS would you pick up?
Tulowitzki is as good as Greene now, and he will be way better in the future. Grab him now if he's available.
