Regarding the previous comments about Maybin, I am wondering if I should be signing JUP or letting him go back in and grabbing him again? He is projected for terrible numbers and if I throw him back I can extend the max time I can have him - worth it or not?

I haven\'t seen any projections yet but I would say that this is the last chance to buy low on Upton. As a 20 year old he got 356 AB and put up a .812 OPS with 15 HR. Not startling numbers but anytime a 20 year old holds his own at the MLB level you should sit up and take notice. He basically had the same line at MLB then Maybin had at AA depite being younger than Maybin.

If you are able to throw him back then redraft him on the cheap then go for it, but he should be a target.

yeah it\'s going to be hard to get him back but them\'s the chances you take. you also don\'t want to pay too much for a guy that can\'t reconcile that price in the time you need him to. if it\'s me i send him back and then try to get him back cheaper for a longer time.

Be forewarned... a guy in one of my pools tried the same on BJUpton a few years back.... he\'s still hurts inside.

Guys like JUpton could explode at any time. I hope you dont\' miss the boat!

I\'m keeping him - when a list like the one over at Project Prospect comes out with him at #1 for OF under 25, the hype machine rolls. This year 20, next 25, 2011 at 30 out of 1000. I love it!
