Grossman v. Hamilton

#1 Post by bamse31 »

Is it a good idea to drop Billy Hamilton from my reserves in a redraft league to pickup Robbie Grossman?

If you could use some help now, I would do it but then I am a bird in the hand sort of player. With his hype, I would think you could get something in a trade for Hamilton if that's a possibility.

WHY? Grossman is in the minor leagues too - neither will help you at this point (and nobody knows who the next minor leaguer to be called up will be). But if both were up or if Grossman were up now and Hamilton was up a month from now (hypothetical question) who would you rather have? Yes Hamilton

Grossman was called up to replace Justin Maxwell and could be getting some time especially since JD Martinez is also out.

Sorry when I posted my earlier response I had not seen that Grossman was called up to replace Justin Maxwell.


BUT which of your current OF would Grossman replace? That is really the question and unless you have Maxwell or someone on the DL it should be a big upgrade to drop Hamilton

I may use him instead of Chris Young.
