for 2013...Joey Bats or CarGo?

[Flyman]

12-team, traditional 5x5 roto, mixed, 1st year keeper league, keep 8.

I've been offered Bautista and Grandal for Gonzalez by the team in 1st. I'm up to 5th, but a money spot is out of the question, so I'm rebuilding for next year. Right now, my freeze list looks like:
1B Fielder
2B Bonifacio
3B Middlebrooks
CI Sandoval
SS Tulowitski
OF CarGo
OF Braun

Other options: C Arencibia, OF Marte, OF Myers (if he ever gets called up and sticks next spring), SP Morrow.

My initial thoughts are that I'd rather stay with Gonzalez because of his BA and SBs. With this keeper list, I only have three SB threats. Trading CarGo for Bautista would give me more HR and probably comparable RBI and Runs.

I would take CarGo. He's still young, he'll probably keep running, and he still plays in Coors.

I'd take the gamble that Joey's wrist is a non-issue come February. In this day there is more value in power than speed, get your mashers early and get out to a head start because you aren't going to be able to trade for it cheaply in-season.

And the third CarGo vote being from a Jay fan, lol.

True, though Jays fan or not, I will take the boost in AVG and SB over the HR anyday.
