Pearce versus Hosmer

kenjlev18baseball  7/8/2014 6:34 AM

Grabbed Pearce and dropped Hosmer yesterday, as you gave Pearce a big bump. Then after I made the move, you lowered him. The comments seemed to say he would have better value for the next 30 days, and then would drop, which would be fine for me, as I have Cuddyer coming back in early August, and would then drop Pearce or Hosmer if I re-acquire him.

So my question is that until Cuddyer comes back, if you were me, would you ride Pearce or re-acquire Hosmer?

Per-game, we have Pearce projected higher than Hosmer so if you're looking for a one-month player, he looks like the better bet. Hosmer has improved lately, but Pearce has been one of the best over the last month. Considering both have been free agents in your league, it seems finding decent players is not too hard with your settings.

In a 14 team league I'm surprise they are still there.
