The problem you’re faced with is very common to those playing in very shallow leagues and there really is no hard and fast answer to your question. You have a very solid roster, but as we all know, the hot hands will jump up and the waiver wire in your league will be constantly filled with options. The problem is getting the crystal ball to work for you and with the amount of talent available in your league that is truly a crap shoot.

You certainly have yourself a conundrum. Until Gordon proves he can hit at the MLB level, he’s best left on your bench. With doubles and triples as a category you would think that Fowler would be the obvious choice, but he’s been really struggling. He’s also dealing with an “achy” wrist which is probably one of the reasons for his struggles. When healthy, Fowler is the better option, but heading into this week I think your safe play is to go with Milledge. The Pirate offense has been firing on all cylinders lately and Milledge has been a steady contributor. He has also been named the everyday right fielder by the Pirates, so playing time should not be an issue.
