Uribe & Ricky weeks

#1 Post by viper »

10 team, NL only, no bench, standard 5 categories

Uribe is expected to come off the DL today. I am trying to upgrade my catching position by trading him. I have until June 24 to activate him or he goes into the free agent pool. In this league he is 2B, 3B, MI, CO & UT eligible.

I currently have:
2B: Rickie Weeks
3B: Alex Ramirez
CO: Chase Headley
MI: Jose Altuve
UT: Willie Bloomquist.

I currently has 10s in RBI & Runs, 7 in HR, 8 in SB and move between a 9 & 6 in average depending on the day.

The only place I see Uribe as a possible improvement is - and this is hard to say - Rickie Weeks.

For the rest of the way, would you go with Weeks or Uribe?

Not expecting Uribe to last long or contribute much when he returns, so I would keep Weeks

I agree with Hook. The Uribe train left the station a long time ago. Weeks is a proven hitter who should get better.

I agree about keeping Weeks but wondered if others concurred. As far as being a proven hitter who should get better, I think every Adam Dunn owner from last year said those same words. They were right about getting better but off by about 9 months.
