re: Should I keep Kipnis over Posey

We do count K's as -1 but SB as 2.

Need to turn in my keepers soon, give me a final answer

It's close. We need more scoring info here.

Kipnis can still get better. He was at 53/13/57/21/.301 through the ASB last season. If he puts up a consistent season he could be a top 10 fantasy player. I don't think you can say the same about Posey

Single - 1
Double - 2
Triple - 3
HR - 4
R - 1
RBI - 1
BB - 1
SB - 2
K - -1

Pretty standard

If Kipnis strikes out at the same rate as last year, it basically makes his SB's null if you compare him head up to Posey. So by keeping Kipnis you are saying you think he'll be a better hitter all around than Posey. And while he was last year, the year before, Posey was a monster.

Posey net points for K's/SBs: -66

Kipnis net points for K's/SB: -83

advantage: Posey


something to think about

Posey MVP Season Age 25- 447



It could go either way. The thing that stands out to me is how much a big K guy can be detrimental to a team.
