Mid season LVP?

[sheetskout]

Rickie Freakin' Weeks.

Lincecum. Delmon Young.

Drew Stubbs

Drew Stubbs

Scott Rolen is much less valuable, and gets in the way of Frazier playing because of Dusty.

 

[Mahoody]

Alex Rodriguez

Well he has played 20 less games than Stubbs so I wasn't really even considering the semi-retire Rolen. BTW Dusty getting two mentions on this thread and I think this might be one of his best jobs ever. Easily one of the most under appreciated managers of all-time.

 

[Y4NK335]

Tim Lincecum without a doubt.

I like Dusty, I just think he gets really stubborn even when something isn't working.

Hosmer, Arencibia, Uggla (despite the AS start), Freddie Freeman's power, Brian McCann, Jonny Venters

I'm as big a Braves homer as they come, but I too was surprised Uggla got an AS spot, much less START! He has no business being there over Brandon Phillips. I'll give Freddie a pass because he's been having finger issues, but Mac and Venters are also good calls.

 

[Benson]

Nyjer Morgan. He's shoved almost as many fans as he has RBIs, 1 to 5.

 

[leatherman]

Justin Smoak doesn't even hit as well as KEN Brett.

You may have intended to be kidding, but you are 100% correct. Smoak's career OPS+ is just 88. Ken Brett had a career OPS+ of 95. Of all pitchers in the last 50 years with at least 200 plate appearances, that's the highest OPS+, and it's not even close. Earl Wilson is 2nd with an OPS+ of 76.

Also, Ken Brett homered in FOUR straight starts in 1973, but Smoak has only homered in three straight games.

Not that Chris Volstad is any good, but he's 0-7 with a 7.94 ERA in nine starts. Tough to be any crappier than that.

I love how you can pull obscure 1/1s of obscure players when they are mentioned.

Nyjer Morgan. He's shoved almost as many fans as he has RBIs, 1 to 5.

Remember last year when everyone PROMISED that Nyjer would turn into a cancer this year when he started sucking it up? Remember when everyone was still wrong to this point? Yeah, good times...

He does suck something fierce this year though.

 

[nosterbor]

Alex Rodriguez

That would be my pic also. Albert Pujols #2

 

[vwnut13]

Adrian Gonzalez?

Bad Karma is a B i tch

Oh worst manger is definitely Fredi Gonzalez. Well, maybe Dusty Baker.

I agree Frediot is the worst. I can think of several games off the top of my head that he totally butchered. He's the worst strategist of a manager in baseball.
