Uggla vs Werth

[sfleming]

for the rest of the year, who would you rather have ?
I have the opportunity to get either in a trade for Axford (I'm leading my league in saves by far).

OBP league, standard cats otherwise. I suppose I could use a MI over a OF in terms of flexibility.

thx

it's close, but I'd take Werth here.

It is close. I take Uggla here.

I'm glad that out of your responses I get a differing ultimate opinion and that it is really close.

I was wondering if I was just being a blockhead as I couldn't decide.

I lean towards Uggla as I think Werth is hurt by hitting out of the 1 or 2 spot in Washingtons lineup instead of a run-producing spot. Once Uggla starts hitting, he will get the 5 hole and he showed signs last night.

Agreed. I have them both and am somehow in 1st by a large margin, no thanks to either of these guys, both of whom I kept at $14 (12-team mixed).

[sfleming]

thanks everybody.

Man Uggla has been sick over the last month or so. He is up to 23 bombs.

Werth has picked up his game a bit lately also but Uggla has been crushing it. I had to include one of them in a dump trade in order to stay under the cap and saw that Uggla has been my best hitter over the past month. About time!
