    How many teams in the league? My guess is Moreland, and my strong guess is not Burrell. That's a crowded SF outfield and I think the projections that have him getting 500 ABs are pretty optimistic.
    In the best of times, our days are numbered, anyway. And it would be a crime against Nature for any generation to take the world crisis so solemnly that it put off enjoying those things for which we were presumably designed in the first place, and which the gravest statesmen and the hoarsest politicians hope to make available to all men in the end: I mean the opportunity to do good work, to fall in love, to enjoy friends, to sit under trees, to read, to hit a ball and bounce the baby.

        I will say Gaby.

          I would say Gaby. Moreland may get 400 AB, Gaby may get 600. In a deep league it's worth the 4 bucks to have a full-timer in that spot.

            plus Gaby should get a lot of time in the 2 hole and score a lot of runs in front of Hanley/Stanton.

              Gaby is money in the bank, imo. Moreland is more like rolling the dice.

                I would go with Sanchez as well. In a mixed league, I would run away from Burrell even at a $1. He is one of the more frustrating players to own, and I don't think he catches lightning in bottle for another year.

                I went back to Baseball HQ, just to see what Burrell has historically earned in a 5x5 league. Here are his numbers from 2002 - $26, $1, $12, $23, $13, $14, $13, $3, $10. If you can figure out in advance which year will be is good year, you are a better man than I.

                  Burrell is also going to be a 6th inning player in Giant wins due to his glove........
