Ok, here's my dillema. Someone in my league just dropped Johan Santana. I was thinking about picking him up, but don't want to drop anyone on my team to get him. I might just leave him on the waiver wire until I hear he has a shot at a rotation spot and then hope I'm the first one to get in on him.
Another big one: Someone also just dropped Ken Griffey, Jr. I would love to have him on my team. We have a DL spot, but I would have to drop someone to pick him up initially and then try and pick that player back up after he clears waivers. Not sure who to try and sneak through waivers to acquire Jr. Was thinking about Aramis Ramirez, since I have Alfonzo at 3B, and other 3B on the wire include: Jose Valentin, Robin Ventura, Mark Bellhorn. I could also try Frank Thomas. Thomas is off to a slow start, but I think because of "name value" he would get claimed on waivers. On the plus side, if I would lose Thomas, I could pick up: Steve Finley, Aubrey Huff, Josh Phelps, Karim Garcia, or Travis Hafner.
I guess the downside is that many of the players on my team have gotten off to good starts, so if I waive one, they most likely will be claimed. I'm just not sure who is the best player to waive that may not get claimed and I can acquire them after they clear free agency. What do you think.
