Buy/Sell - Rule should be changed for collisions at home plate when the plate is not blocked

Im asking this in Lieu of the nasty Posey injury last night.

Even though my fantasy team lost Posey last night, I would have to sell. The plate wasn't fully blocked, but it would have had to have been a head first slide to get around Posey's back foot. Considering what happened to Hamilton, Roberts, and others with head first slides recently, as a runner, it may be a safer option to plow the catcher over than to risk injury on a swan dive into home.
