    Is it time to drop Jason Heyward?
    I got no more room for him on my bench, and I don't know if he's gonna turn it around.
    He's batting 150, and did some tim on the dl, earlier this year.

    What I was thinking of doing, was, I was thinking of dropping Heyward to stream a start from Bartolo Colon.
    Colon has pitched back to back 7 inning games with two wins and 12 k's to boot.
    He's hosting a struggling White Sox team, in his home field pitcher's park.

    Is it time to send this guy to the rotisserie free agency?
    Jason Heyward is still 100% owned in most rotisserie formats.
    Will I regret dropping him?

    I honestly don't know. I have two teams and I own him in a head to head redraft league. I've been considering dropping him. He has been a disappointment big time.

      I was hoping for 25 hrs, not .150. He is fine when on dl not taking a spot.

            I like the prospect of picking up Colon. White sox definitely struggling if anything there is a good chance he will get the win

              yeah...i honestly avoid this guy like the plague every year...to me he's a bit overrated, strikes out a million times and rarely hits for average, yes he can hit bombs but i would try to find power elsewhere...colon is a decent option, is michael wacha available? or zach wheeler? these two rookie phenoms are going to make a difference this year, i grabbed wacha last week and he was money last night for me...wheeler should be called up in a week or 2

                He blows. Since he has been in the league, guys try to write off his struggles on INJ's. Not buying that shit. Justin Upton is carrying the dead bodies of his brother, and Heyward in order to keep that OF productive offensively.

                      Do you end up dropping him for Colon darrell74? Bartolo with a very nice start tonight.

                        The talent is there, but can he figure it out this season?

                          This probably deserves another thread or in another post, but what the hell do you if you have BJ Upton? Gross signing by Atlanta. Unreal how bad he has performed.

                            Imagine how good Braves would be if Upton and him were hitting at league average.

                              I'm an idiot, the girls at work called me up to go party and I forgot due to my drunkenness. I'm a total idiot for being tentative.

                              Heyward is on my bench now.
                              Still 100% owned in ESPN leagues and not being dropped.
                              Why isn't he being dropped?
                              I don't want to be the fool that drops him because I overlooked something.
                              But the evidence is starting to phuck w/ my mind. Batting average 146 and only 2 homers. No RBI's in over 2 weeks.
                              So why isn't the dude being dropped in ESPN leagues? Just don't get it, I guess.

                                Dropped him and don't regret it.
                                He's unowned in both the leagues I'm in, so it's not like somebody scooped him up and still believes in him.
                                He's got a lot of 0-fer days ahead of him.
                                I think Atlanta likes him, just because he can snag fly balls in center field. But worthless for rotisserie.

                                  Phuck, if they could bat .220, the pundits would be handing them the world series.
                                  What a joke those 2 are!

                                    I have him too. And will be dropping him very soon.

                                    Just went though this shit with BJ in one of my other leagues.

                                    I will never draft either of them in the future!!!!!!!! What a waste of a draft pick these two have become.

                                      I dropped Heyward in this weekly league I do. I'm not as invested in it, so it was an easy drop. I enjoy the Braves and it's a shame that he just hasn't lived up to that rookie season. Okay last year, but awful this season.

                                        I know if he was just doing average just average they would be great

                                          everyone forgetting about how bad uggla is doing also. had a decent batting average with the marlins and gave them an average of about 30 HRs a season. he has not been the same since joining the braves.

                                            I would drop Heyward in a heartbeat...but then again, I would never have him to begin with. He was overhyped coming up and has remained overraated since.
