Currently Pay Burrell is plain bad. From past experience he is so very streaky all or nothing. But I also remember the year he hit .220 and Philly management seems to hate him. Do you think this will be a lost year for the Pat the bat?

And does anyone know the story behing Corey Hart and Adam Lind?

Are they going to play Corey Hart every day now? Or at least close to every day?

With all of the injuries in Toronto, will Adam Lind play every day?

Just in general production, usefulness who will be better over the rest of the year?

I started the year with Burrell let him go and went with Hart for a while. Hart wasn't playing so I grabbed Lind when he came up. That was good for a week. I picked Burrell back up and now I'm totally confused what to do. Quite frankly, I'm a little suprised. I'm in a 14 team 5X5 league and no one seems interested in these 3 and there really isn't much on the waiver wire. Am I wasting my time with these guys and in desperate need of a trade to fix my OF? Or is patience the key?

Hart is by far the best player in that group. Its not even close right now... Hart has no weakness as a player and the only reason why he was producing early was because of a sore wrist and not getting AB's. He should be the everyday RF from here on out (like the plan was after spring training). He can hit 10-12 homers and steals 15-18 bags from here on out. Look for him to move to the 5 hole when Weeks returns (nice spot for him, he will continue to run and will have more RBI opportunities).

Burrell is going down hill and Lind is going to be a solid player but not a great fantasy contributor (at least no this yr).

maybe I was just taking a chance but I just traded a hot hart for burrell , well it was a 2 for 2 deal where I also gave up wickman for nathon

so i gave up hart and wickman for burrell and nathon, some how Burrell will still hit 25+ hr or at least I hope so.

MINOR MIRACLES-

Adam Lind will be one of the best pure hitters the league has seen in a while.

Hart will likely be the more productive player this season now that they are giving him the chance; Adam is coming around. I would roster either over Burrell- he has frustrated me too many years past.

Hart, Lind, Burrell for 2007


COACHES- You got Nathan for Wickman in that same trade? In that case: Brother, you can't possibly feel bad. ;-)

Darrelle Revis: OK.

Darrelle Revis: Slouch.

Darrelle Revis: Probably say slouch, too.

Burrell was a complete bust the day before Philly inked him to his big contract. They should have shipped him to play with J.D. Drew!! Anyway, I own Hart & Lind on my keeper team & excited about both. I targeted Hart before the draft & missed him by 1 rd. on my projections. Well minor injuries & the hot start of so many on the Brewerskept him limited, but now Yost has publicly committed to using Hart as his leadoff man & he is taking his opportunity to fulfill his promise.
As for Lind, Well let's say i have Pie , Pence , Hart & Lind penciled in as my outfield for the next 10 years. Adam projects very nicely to the M.L. level & for the next 4 to 6 weeks will show us that he will be worth it. With Overbay out, they are moving Stairs to 1st & giving Lind full time duties in the outfield, being that he is 1 of their only left handed bats available to break up the lineup.
I like Hart a little better right now, due to the line up he is on , but both should be kept & Burrell cast aside like the fantasy waste he is. A trade is definitly NOT in order & you will see excellent results from both Lind & Hart.

Where would you rate Shane Victorino & Carlos Quentin in this group?
My gut was telling me:
Quentin
Victorino
Hart
Lind
Burrell

But Victorino's slump has me wondering. Plus if I get Hart, do you agree that he will come close to Victorino in the Sbs?
