5x5 OBP, one of the teams that's doing pretty well is offering up Damon, Ellsbury and Abreu in an attempt to gain some more power. By my numbers, the most viable guy here is Abreu by far, even ignoring the fact that he's been on fire the past month (4th overall over the last 28 days).
The rankings I use (factoring in OBP) have Abreu ranked 29th in the league, but I think he's somewhat underrated because he doesn't hit a lot of HR, and I think his OBP isn't valued as highly as it should be (the value calculator I use shows that Abreu's OBP is worth the exact same as 23 HR)
I own the following 5 OF that I use in my 4 total OF/DH spots, rankings in parentheses:
Matt Kemp (35)
Nelson Cruz (50)
Curtis Granderson (77)
Luke Scott (141, 88th in per-game value)
Nick Swisher (160)
Do I start with Scott? Go as far as Granderson? My instinct is to old back on offering Kemp or Cruz, they're just too close in value.
