Advice on 2B

Simple question. Inge, G. Beckham or Callaspo until Kinsler returns to health. I've been juggling the 3 with 0 success and I want to stick one guy there and let it ride.

I'm getting killed in the HR and RBI departments.

Hahaha, funny, I'm in the same boat as you. I've been rolling with Beckham... Kinsler needs to get his ass off the DL, post haste.

Re: Advice on 2B

I drafted Kinsler, found out he was injured, and promptly traded him for Pedroia. So far Dustin's been great, but we'll see if Kinsler can get of the DL fast enough to catch up with him.

Re: Advice on 2B

Is Ty Wigginton available in your league? He has second base eligibility.

Re: Advice on 2B

Callaspo will be the most consistent and he is sneaky in piling up some of the other non-SB numbers; he's batting 5th in that KC lineup so he's getting RBI's and hitting .300 with double figure pop; he's very under-appreciated in fantasy baseball. Beckham down the line, but Callaspo now.

Callaspo is underappreciated, and his damage is mostly done against righties.

Personally I would keep all of them and just play matchups if this is a daily league...

That's what I've been trying to do. With little success.

The day after I bench Inge, 2 bombs. Callaspo was my answer also.

But it sounds like it will be moot, as Kinsler is almost back.

But Callaspo will be the one I'm keeping more long-term.

Inge hit them off of a lefty in Texas- I lucked out after recognizing the matchup.

I also had both of Fukodome's bombs in my lineup- dude kills right handers.
