03/19: YBCP 07 Questions & Status Update
Posted by: James
Well, I've got the hitters pretty much wrapped up and posted. I'll be putting up an index page shortly of all the players I have posted so far and am going to cover in the next week and a half. Unfortunately, I don't have the time to cover the rest of the bench (Todd Pratt, Andy Phillips/Josh Phelps & Miguel Cairo) but seriously, if Pratt or Cairo are going to be impact players on the 2007 Yankees...something must have gone very wrong.
I'll be starting up with the pitcher posts in a short while and for the most part, I'd say that the bullpen roster is set. I'm keeping Bruney over Britton and Igawa over Karstens for those that are interested, though my choice did raise a good question. Should I put posts up for guys that might have some value as call-ups (i.e Jeff Karstens, Phil Hughes, Chris Britton, T.J. Beam, etc.)?
Do you think they will have an impact on the season and if so, should I ask for projections on them now or wait until they actually get the call? I'm leaning towards the latter for the time being. In any case, since I'm just about at the half-way point, I'll start asking people to take a little bit of time to post your projections. This little exercise only gets better if we get more people and more input so if you haven't added your thoughts yet, please do so, and if possible, ask some of your Yankees buddies to do so as well.
