    Default What to do with Walker/Uggla

    So I picked up Walker to be a stopgap in my year long Uggla issue.....and he's been freaking unbelievable. But now I kind of feel like Uggla could be on the verge of one of his insane tears. No power yet, but batting .346 so far in August with 9 hits. After ONLY GETTING 9 HITS IN JULY......this could be a big step.

    My only viable option to drop in order to have Uggla and Walker in the lineup everyday is Rasmus, but he's recently been the only guy making some contact for the Jays.

    Do I just wait it out and go with my gut on who to play/sit?

    I would hang onto Walker at 2b. Flip a coin between Uggla and Rasmus. I would have no problem keeping Rasmus over Uggla.

    That's the things...stats wise so far this year sure. But Uggla has the potential to make me league champion if he goes on a streak like he did last year. Im not sure Rasmus can do that.

    I have Walker @ 2B and put Uggla back in at Util last night.

    My other Util options are Werth or Carlos Gomez.

    Last year I held on to Uggla all year and dropped him just before he went nuts. I'm not making the same mistake again.

    Colby Rasmus? Just bench him and see what Uggla does.

    Start Walker, bench or drop Uggla.

    Uggla has really been picking up RBI and more hits lately, I've got him back in my starting line up and am waiting for him to explode. If not, the RBI etc is still a nice thing to get.

    Another homer for Uggla tonight. Walker's been on fire too though.
