If possible, I would still try to hold Duffy because he was proving to be a rare talent. But if you don't have the roster/keeper slot to do so, you obviously have to drop Duffy. Hopefully you can pick him up in your draft next year because he's one of few pitchers with legit #1 starter potential.

I don't know what type of value you'll get for Cozart but it doesn't hurt to check around and see what offers you can get. However, if you don't get an offer that you like, don't feel pressured into making a deal just to get something.

I read about him and his BABIP is .500 so that won't continue. They say his normal average will hang below .280 and he strikesout plenty. Do you think I should sell high on Cozart and hold onto asdrubal? The one option that I have considered the strongest was to sell high on Cozart.

I think once we get into May we have a better idea of who is for real and who will struggle but at this point I think you still need to trust your pre-draft research. I think you have a pretty solid team and to start making moves now will only make things worse not better. Sit tight and let the other owners in your league make the panic moves. Then you can benefit by adding a truly superior player, not one that appears to be superior in April but will fall apart once we hit May. Marc,
