Hamilton vs. McCutchen?

[ajwseven]

I'm in a mixed 12 team 5x5 H2H league w/ 5 keepers per team. I've been offered Josh Hamilton for McCutchen and my 6th rounder. My other keepers are Tulo, Longo, Votto and Ubaldo. All thoughts are appreciated.

Thanks.

I would do it but it's close. With 5 keepers in a 12 team league that's like an 11th round pick, not worth that much. The difference isn't huge and I love Cutch but in a shallow league I'd bet on wonderboy's upside. The biggest problem is the deal leaves you with zero speed

Yep, not much more to say than what JC said. Pull the trigger, get a a speed guy in the draft.

I say keep the safer player and the pick. Yes, Hamilton has more upside, but don't underestimate his injury downside, especially in a h2h league. I'm not a gambler unless I think I need to be. With your keeper list, which is top notch, I'd go with the safer play--Cutch and the pick.
