still Miggy.

Braun may not be able to stay at 3rd if he keeps up his fielding performance.

Is there a cost involved or round selected, and if so, what is the difference?

no cost...this is in the GRB keeper league...

i picked up bruan on waivers...drafted miggy...

miggy currently is at 3b with braun at UTIL


but part of me thinks i could net some big returns with one of them...but im not sure who to keep..

brauns got his defense issues...miggys got his expanding waistband issues...

but then again, maybe i should just keep them

Brb, offering trade. Don't have to pull the trigger now, you can think about it until the offseason.

Since I'm not familiar with the league setup, I'll ask the easy question: Is defense a part of your league?

And if you keep both, it doesn't matter if Braun gets moved from 3B or not, since you're using him in the UTIL spot.

I'd be inclined to keep them both, since they're both projected to be mashers for a while. However, if one can traded to upgrade/fill a gaping hole you may have somewhere else (SP, OF), it might be worth it. I guess I'd have to be in the league and be able to view your roster and others to see if there was a trade that made sense.

Think about it Joc.

Felix Hernandez for Ryan Braun. You need the pitching.

I don't know if I'd want to inherit his history of arm problems. Braun's been and will be a masher. Felix has huge upside, but a nice medical file, too.

Braun is way over his head right now. I'm not convinced he's even a .900 OPS guy for future seasons. Sell high. Like for example, if someone was crazy enough to offer Felix Hernandez for him.
