As I check the stats and info in some of my leagues going into the week ahead, I find that stolen bases are a very neglected area in the draft, because in many basestealers, we find a lack of contributions iii other categories that limit their use in your league. So, here is a list of people available in one of my leagues, just to give you an example of who might be waiver worthy in some ways, despite their lack of desired effect. You gotta find some upside here in these SB BARGAIN(S) ON THE WIRE:
Ian Desmond, 13 SB, 15 RBI;
Sam Fuld, 12 SB, 13 RBI;
Erick Aybar, 10 SB, .336 BA,
Mike Aviles, 8 SB, 5 HR, 26 RBI;
Cameron Maybin, 6 SB, 5 HR
HAMPERED: Check out the news on these guys before using them in the week ahead: Adam Lind, Brandon Beachy, Carlos Beltran, Shane Victorino, Grady Sizemore
TWO START BRIGADE:
AWESOME: Felix Hernandez, Cliff Lee, Josh Johnson, David Price, Tommy Hanson, Jaime Garcia, James Shields, Matt Cain,
NEXT BEST THING: Shaun Marcum, Brett Anderson, Gio Gonzalez, Ricky Nolasco, AJ Burnett, Justin Masterson, Jonathan Sanchez, Ubaldo Jimenez, Daniel Hudson, matt Garza, Hiroki Kuroda, Zach Britton, Edwin Jackson
NOT TOO BAD: Colby Lewis,Wandy Rodriguez, Derek Lowe, Edison Volquez, Francisco Liriano, Home Bailey, Tim Stauffer, Scott Baker, Jordan Zimmerman, Brett Myers, Kyle Drabek, Joel Piniero, Randy Wolf, Rick Porcello, John Lackey
AIMING LOW:,Matt Harrison, Daisuke Matsuzaka, Ivan Nova, Charlie Morton, Clayton Richard, Jon Garland, Mike Pelfrey, Jason Vargas, Jonathan Niese, Jessie Litsch, jake Westbrook, Phil Coke, Tyler Chatwood, Paul Maholm, Carlos Carrasco, Chris Tillman, John Lennan, Armando Galarraga, Sean O’ Sullivan, Clayton Mortensen, Vin Mazzaro, Casey Coleman
