Around SBN: Indy 500: 'Greatest Spectacle In Racing' Set For Sunday

Is Broxton Worth Anything?

I am in a 12-team H2H mixed league where we can keep 6-10 (haven't finalized the number) players next year.  Almost every stat counts in our league, as follows:
Batting: R, H, 2B, 3B, HR, RBI, SB, BB, K, AVG, OBP, SLG
Pitching:  W, L, CG, SHO, SV, HR, K, HLD, ERA, WHIP, BSV

Here is my current team:

C Kurt Suzuki (Oak - C)
1B Miguel Cabrera(Det - 1B)
2B Jed Lowrie(Bos - 2B,SS)
3B Jose Bautista(Tor - 3B,RF)
SS Stephen Drew(Ari - SS)
CI Justin Morneau(Min - 1B)
MI Chone Figgins(Sea - 2B,3B)
LF Carl Crawford(Bos - LF)
CF Grady Sizemore(Cle - CF)
RF Corey Hart(Mil - RF)
OF Adam Jones(Bal - CF)
Util Cameron Maybin(SD - CF)
Util Brett Gardner(NYY - LF,CF)

BN Alex Rios(CWS - CF)
BN Mike Trout(LAA - CF)
BN Eric Hosmer(KC - 1B)

SP Josh Johnson(Fla - SP)
SP Bud Norris(Hou - SP)
SP John Danks(CWS - SP)
SP Carlos Zambrano(ChC - SP,RP)
SP Aaron Crow(KC - SP,RP)
RP Chris Perez(Cle - RP)
RP Matt Thornton(CWS - RP)
RP David Robertson(NYY - RP)
P Jake McGee(TB - RP)
P Kerry Wood(ChC - RP)
BN Ervin Santana(LAA - SP)
BN Matt Harrison(Tex - SP,RP)
BN Madison Bumgarner(SF - SP)
DL Adam Wainwright(StL - SP)
DL Stephen Strasburg(Was - SP)

 

Jonathan Broxton was just dropped.  Is he worth taking a flier on, or is he going to be useless this year?  If he is placed on the DL, I can just pick back up whoever I drop to get him (assuming he's not taken).  If/when he gets off the DL and if he plays well (two big ifs), then I'm sure I could use him as trade bait.  If you think he's worth picking up, who would you drop?  I think I need to drop Trout, since he's not going to play this year, he won't be a keeper this year, and I really have no idea why I'm stashing him.

Is Jonathan Broxton worth taking a flier on?
Snatch him up, stash him on your DL and enjoy him when he gets healthy.

Don't waste your time or your waiver pick, even if you have the last waiver pick.

I think if I add Broxton, I’d easily get the award for all-underperforming team (to go with Morneau, Crawford, Hart, Gardner, Rios, Danks, Thornton and possibly even Figgins).
