Gio Stanton: buy low or stay away?

Might be able to get him in a package for Cespedes...ROS who you liking?

Depends on your needs. Cespedes is very streaky, but he has proven very healthy and durable. The same can't be said of Stanton. If you need HR specifically, Stanton is your play. That said, the Mets' lineup is so bad, Cespedes may have fewer RBI opportunities than Stanton in the MIA lineup.

I think he is going to out hit Cespedes the ROS, IF he stays healthy. I have no doubt at all in Stanton's abilities, save for his ability to stay on the field. He could easily put up 15 homers in a month. But he could also spend a month on the DL, which is why I shy away from him.

Keeper or no? This year only, I wouldn't give up Cespedes plus players to get Stanton. But if I could keep Stanton, yeah I'd make that play

His last 83 AB he is hitting .133 with 40 K. I was looking at him earlier in season to trade for but since I'm leading in HR and BA he isn't what my team needs. IMO he is risky but could be a good low buy low. I keep Cespedes at this point.

[Msaint]

Neither are keepers. I think I'll stand pat unless I can get a second piece of the puzzle that is a big win for me. Thanks, all.
