I feel like Kole has more upside but curious what y'all think.

I wouldn't. Who else you have to drop?

I don't understand the love for Khris Davis. He's never hit more then 22 homers in any level of pro ball.

But I have both ranked about the same. Calhoun hits atop the Angels offense in front of Trout. So that's a huge plus.

Pretty sure Davis led the majors in OPS during the second half last year.

I wouldn't give up on him after two games.

At first glance I'm definitely a Calhoun buyer at this point... if the guy consistently gets on base he'll be a run machine with trout, pujols, and hamilton hitting behind him.

It really depends on what you need. Id rather own the two hitters than Rick frickin Porcello anyway.

Calhoun = Nori Aoki

Davis = Nick Swisher


Writing off any player at this point in dumb.

I dropped Kipnis and E5 this morning. They just weren't producing. I was able to get a couple studs in Cody Asche and Seth Smith though so I'm thrilled.

Agreed. Calhoun will give you a little of everything, maybe runs in spades.

Davis should give power.

How many teams do you have? Calhoun was drafted in my league and would be picked right up if he was dropped

Well he's never had the opportunity to play a full season. He will easily crack 25 HRs this year.

Don't be reactionary. That's how you lose. Keep Davis and Drop Porcello to nab Calhoun...Play both of them out and see how you pan out. They may both end up being solid contributors

ive watched both of their games, and he has hit a lot of balls on the button. Some at people.

his minor league numbers stack up. And he continues to hit in front of Trout, he should see some pitches.
