Difficult cut - looking for others thoughts

Get advice specific to your team. This can be opinions on trades, free agent or waiver pickups, who to start or even just "rate my team". It is helpful if you provide sufficient details regarding your league format and team composition.

Difficult cut - looking for others thoughts

#1 Post by viper »

NL only - 10 team - standard 5 hitting categories - no bench

Jon Jay is back. With no bench, one of these players needs to be released. I do not foresee and possibility of a trade to help the situation. On a 10 top, this team is at 89 with stolen bases is the one category immediately in play. I had a good draft and made a series of fortunate pickup plus have had above average health so far.

Here are the choices:
Chris Heisey
Kirk Nieuwenhus
Willie Bloomquist
Jordan Pacheco
Rickie Weeks
Jon Jay


I am open to any thoughts by others.

With Drew coming back and Bloomquist not really stealing, that would be my initial suggestion.

Bloomquist will be platooning with Drew - at least to start and playing just against LHP may improve his at bats and production but it will be part time.

Not sure how long Neuwenhuis will get playing time but of course Bay out again

Those are the two choices IMO
