Keeper league question

[Jim Schue]

Who should I keep? We have four spots. I've narrowed it to:

 

Almost certain

Justin Verlander

Troy Tulowitzki

 

Not sure

Matt Wieters

Dustin Pedroia

Jason Bay

Derrek Lee

Jacoby Ellsbury

Jared Weaver

Fourth one is between the Sox guys.. I would go with Pedroria 2B can thin out.

[westsider]

I would say Wieters and either Pedroia or Weaver.

[John Anthony]

I would say Wieters and either Pedroia or Weaver.

 

You think Weaver could be his #2 fantasy pitcher? I think he is more of a #3 or #4 guy.

[formerkywrestler]

Not knowing the league settings I think you go:

 

Tulo

Pedroia

Ellsbury

Wieters

 

I'm not keeping a P unless I have to. But that's the order I would rank them in a vacuum.

Agreed on the pitching comment, if you keep a pitcher he better be an Ace or a big time prospect. I struggled to Keep Gallardo in my league and he has Ace upside.

I didn't say that. He gave me a list and I listed the guys I thought were the best options.

I know didn't mean to imply that, but if he keeps Verlander and Weaver, we would have to assume they are #1 and #2 in his fantasy rotation.

[ColonelCrazy]

I would keep:

Verlander

Pedrioa

Bay

Lee

 

Jason Bay's numbers will probably go down because of how big the Mets' park is, but I think he's your best bet. I would be tempted to keep Ellsbury because of the SB's, but I believe he's going to hit 9th.

 

Bay & Lee have the potential for big time numbers.

I'd change it and keep Tulo instead of Bay or Lee. Good hitting SS are hard to come by, unless you have Ramirez or Scutaro.

Anybody else want to weigh in? Thanks to those who have. :thumb:

Lee is not young anymore and first base is very deep. I don't think Lee is top 12. I would rather have Adam Dunn at first and collect his 40 HR's.

I agree. NO way do I give back Tulo.

[Jim Schue]

I agree. NO way do I give back Tulo.

 

Tulowitzki is a no-brainer. With Verlander in prime MLB age (27), he's close.

 

The more I've thought about it, Wieters is looking like a no-brainer as well. I look for him to have a big year.

 

I keep going back and forth on Pedroia, Bay and Ellsbury. Make your case for one of the three!
