Predictions for Torii Hunter and Jeff Francouer?

I have both on my fantasy team and both have been more than disappointing so far. Do you think they will contribute this season and are worth sticking with in their slump? How much do you seen them producing this year? Should I dump them? Who can I pick up instead? LoMo and Soriano are available but neither have been too good so far this year. Who else can I pick up if I want to dump Hunter/Francouer? Schafer and Fowler are available. Bryan LaHair maybe? Do you think Nolan Reimold will stay healthy this season? Any suggestions on OF replacements?

    dont worry, you should be good.

    both players have good talent especially francoeur, here are the stats i am predicting:

    francouer:

    AVG:.284

    RBI: 68

    HR: 23

    R: 57

    Overall: Jeff is a solid player on an underrated team with lots of young talent. The major factor i worry about with him is his baserunning skills, which should bring down his runs.

    Hunter:

    AVG: .259

    RBI: 78

    HR:15

    R:62

    Overall: Hunter is a good contact hitter that should compliment the angels power nicely. he needs to get stronger so he can hit with more power.

    if all fails though. i would get soriano.

    I would definitely keep Frenchy, he'll turn it around. I would consider dropping Hunter for Morrison or LaHair though. Morrison will be a solid contributor and will turn his season around. LaHair is a more risk, more upside kinda guy. He has tons of power and will get lots of playing time, only thing is he'll be a drain on your batting average.

    Hell get Nolan Reimold NOW!!! He is finally getting a chance to play the entire season, and he could hit 35 HR's this season with 85 RBI's.

    I don;t know about raw numbers..but Hunter should do well with Pujols in the lineup...but Hunter is older and past his prime..Francouer hits in a good lineup and will have plenty of chances to put up numbers....Markakis may be someone to consider if you play fantasy and he is still available. Bad team but he looks like he found his stroke again.
