    Is this just an abberation or is he having a "breakout?" I am considering keeping him in my league....... it's a 20 teamer where we can keep up to 10 so the top 200 players or so will be kept?

    What say you?

    I scooped him early. He's been a beast. Hard to say if it's a breakout. If this is a Yahoo league, i'd keep him, considering how deep it is. A feather in your cap would be his position eligibility.

    Have been a fan of Plouffe's since last year especially when Alexi Casilla and Nishioka weren't doing much. I thought he had 20 homer potential if he got enough playing time. I never for once expected a breakout of this magnitude and haven't heard anything about a tweaked swing. It's not an abberation, but at the same time, not 100% sold that he puts up the same pace next year.

    I see it as a sell high situation if you can sell him as a shorstop. By the looks of it, he won't qualify next year and will only have 3B/OF eligibility.

    Rep comin' your way kind sirs. Right now I am trying to obtain Freese, my third base this year has been a revolving door with Davis, Reynolds, Frazier and Plouffe. I'm trying to see if he will do a 2 for 1.

    Although when I re-evaluate his minor league numbers last year, it does backup that he could put up 30+ homer power next year. Interesting.

    Would you hang onto him or is sell high the better option? How does one equate minor numbers into success in the majors?

    Still think he's a sell high if you can sell him as a shorstop and get a proven commodity back.

    I'm in major need of 3B help, I have A Ram at SS right now but I think my need at 3rd is more pressing...... do you think Freese is worth it?

    I know nothing about Plouffe... but I saw Yahoo! had him as their feature fantasy baseball article with a title that said PLOUFFE, THERE IT IS.

    This made me laugh and I instantly wanted him on my fantasy teams!

    Both have similar potential. If you need a third base, he'll still qualify next year, so might as well hold onto him.
