yeap, that is entirely possible. Maybe I will miss the boat on him. I'm sure that if he puts up 40+ pts this year he will be nearly impossible to acquire next year. We aren't talking about Doughty here. But even if he does turn into a 40 pt player going forward, I doubt it will ever take all that much to acquire Girardi in a trade. Looking at Ehrhoff for example, would it really be all that difficult to get him in most leagues? I doubt it.

If someone has a strong feeling that he will be consistent going forward, then by all means they should do what they can to acquire him. Personally, I'm not yet convinced he will be anything special. I would take a small risk on him, but I'm not giving up much to acquire him at this point.

I think he's defiantly more valuable in leagues that count ATOI, Blocked shots and hits (especially Salary Cap leagues). For points only leagues, he's just not that valuable. I don't see him reaching 40pts this year and he's reaching his prime so I wouldn't expect much more out of him. That's my opinion though.
