Hart vs. Melky

[sherwood921]

My weakest position was LF (Duncan and Freel), but aside from that my offense is pretty stacked. I could use some help in runs, avg, sb though. With both Duncan and Freel hitting the DL, should I pickup Corey Hart or Melky Cabrera? We only get 18 pickups and I've used 7 so far, trying to limit them.

 

I hate Cabrera, and I like Hart. However, both players seem to be in line for some PT now. With Weeks hurt Hart has hit leadoff lately and done a solid job, and with Giambi out Damon moves to DH and Melky plays everyday in the OF.

 

Who is going to get more PT and who will put up better numbers? Mind you I think Melky is very overrated, but he should hit for a decent clip and is bound to score runs in that lineup, which is what I need. Hart obviously has a higher ceiling though.

Damon has been taking balls at first and evidently might be well enough to play there, so Melky could be a permanent addition to the lineup.

 

Hart has been jerked around a lot but is now taking advantage of the opportunity. Yost was pimping him before the season started and eventually someone is going to be traded to clear things up in the OF, so chances are that Hart is in the lineup for good now.

 

They are pretty similar players, but I like Hart a bit more.

Hart by a landslide.
