Keith Ballard has recently come back from injury and is available in my league which counts G, A, PIM, +/-, GWG, PPP.  Should I drop Steve McCarthy who has been good of late on the high scoring ATL for Ballard who would provide me with PIM but murder my +/-  on a crappy PHX team?

if you need the PIMs and don't have a better option available to you then that's an ok move.  personally, i'd stick with McCarthy.

Keep in mind that McCarthy has missed games because of both an injury and being a healthy scratch. He is usually the power play QB when he's in there, but his minutes fluctuate quite a bit, and Hartley doesn't seem to trust him.

Still, not sure Ballard is an upgrade. Check out Mike Komisarek in MTL for a guy who's quietly producing in +/- and PIMs.
