Should I retire him?

I have a Norse Blitzer with 4 SPP who has suffered a -MA injury. I have 13 players in the roster (apart from him), but one is losing the next match (another Blitzer, with a MA upgrade). The rest of the roster is composed by:
6 linemen (one with guard, one with kick)
2 catchers (one with +AG, the other with jump up and dodge)
2 Throwers (one with sure hands)
4 blitzers (one with +AG, one with +MA -who is losing next match and is niggled-, one unskilled and the mentioned at the start).
I have 70,000 gps in the tresaury, apothecary, three Rerolls and FF 9. TR is 153. Pick your option and post why (if you wish to).
The league is an open league with no playoffs and a maximum of 20 games per team (I've played nine so far).

MA 5 with jump up isn't the end of the world. Keep him around, if he turns into something cool then keep him, if not let him go when you need to drop some TR. With 13 players he will make a decent bench warmer. With AV 7 you could need some back up sometime soon.

I knew I forgot something... I've got three rerolls. The opening post has been edited.

I'd keep him for now, just because you want to have 12 players who could make the next match. Maybe replace him after you get a big guy.

Keep him. Give him Guard and he's the perfect player for you LOS, where's his MA5 won't be as noticable. I've one on one of my PBeM Norse teams.

don't replace till you got about 15 players including the BG (unless you get a very good income somewhere)

A pity to sack a player and consequentially get into a manpower problem cause you got too few players.

I allways try to get an as full as possible roster first before I start sacking players..

Yeah keep him and give him Guard.

I agree that you keep him, give him guard and use him in the LOS or other places he don´t need his ma.

Keep him spend the money on a 4th reroll, should be all u really need.

You should ofcourse keep him until you have more players, and have money to replace him. -1 MA is not too bad, if he had -1 AV or -1 ST then you would have some thing to think about.
good luck too ya
