Christina D asked in SportsFantasy Sports · 1 decade ago

I need some fantasy baseball advice?

With Chase Utley coming of the DL, I have a dilemma. Obviously Ultey will start at second, but where do I put Brian Roberts? I have one spot open for a utility player, currently filled by Adrian Beltre. (David Wright is my third baseman) Do I switch Beltre for Roberts? Beltre is hot right now and Seattle is fighting for a playoff spot. Roberts is probably a better overall player, but the Orioles are done. How much weight to I give a hot player on a hot team? Am I missing something, or am I over thinking this and should I just go with the better player? Any advice would be welcome.

    No. Brian Roberts isnt worth having on your team. I myself just released him for lack of production. dont overanalyze this thing. Just get rid of that dead weight. also doesnt it have him listed at multiple positions? this is a nono for all players at this point. you need specialized players during the playoffs.

    Overall picture....Seattle isnt likely going to make the playoffs either. Roberts gets you steals and decent numbers. Beltre may be hot, but he overall is not worth a starting roster spot. You pretty much have the top two second basemen in baseball....put them both in your roster
