Which Wheels Should I Use? Pierre/Morgan/Gardner

Hey guys,

Trying to set my weekly roster (due tonight). I have the choice between 3 speedsters:

Pierre's bat has come alive lately, but I'm not sure if he has the greenlight to run as he pleases on the bases. He had an ugly caught stealing today in the middle of a rally, and I'm sure it mustve really pissed off Ozzie Guillen. Morgan has also been hitting well, and seems to be getting the majority of the starts for the Brewers in CF. His lineup spot fluctuates between 2nd and 8th though. Gardner's bat is a little cold, is getting benched vs lefties in favor of Andruw Jones, and is stuck at the bottom of the lineup. If you were me, who would you select? My weak categories are Runs and Steals. I think the choice is between Pierre and Morgan, with the slight edge to Pierre due to his leadoff spot, and secure playing time. I would love to get some other opinions on this though.

Pierre for sure

You should drop Morgan or Pierre...

Bourgeious… Way more upside… way more steal potential… and widely available.

I’m dl hoarding him right now. He’s height of steal potential of anyone in the majors. Don’t party foul.

You need to respect the baby... 'cause life is precious... and God... and the Bible.

If you're stuck with these 3...

right now I think I’d go w/ Nyjer Morgan. I like the Jays’s lineup and I like his OBP over the other 2 right now. But, given other options, there are likely similar output guys with higher upside on the wire, yeah?

This is why I hate roto…chasing SBs with barely-rosterable players, etc.
