Sharp take
Sharp SixHoldA 7.0 value over replacement is not worth an IR-less roster spot for half a season. Pierce is owned in 100% of the field, which tells you more about draft-day inertia than about his remaining value, and the midseason return is a hope, not a timeline. He put up 10.1 points in Week 1 and the offense has moved on. Stash him if your league gives you the injured slot for free. Cut him if it doesn't.
