I'd go with Votto. Kemp was a close second but Votto to me is more consistent.

Help me?

Probably would take Votto here as well but man Kemp is enticing.

Can't see keeping Myers unless this is a prospect heavy league and there is no chance you can get him back at a reasonable price in the draft. Heck no on Gordon. Not sold on Middlebrooks and Rios is too much of an enigma to keep IMO.

I went with Myers over Ethier or Rios with the final pick since it seems like you could use the long term upside more than the short term upside (no offense). As far as the first pick is considered ... Votto is the best choice. Hopefully since you already have Fielder you can plug Votto into a UTL or CI spot. If not, then draft Kemp. The big concern with Kemp is that he is having shoulder surgery in January. The good news is that he should have his legs back under him.

I'd take Kemp because you already have Fielder to keep. Unless you have a ton of UTIL or CI spots, I would be wary about carrying too many 1B/UTIL guys with Fielder, Votto, and Ortiz.

I would differ from most here too and not keep McCann. I take the approach that you can grab a C late in a draft and be just fine, and I think that McCann is starting to head down the Russell Martin path. Just overworked at this point and his injuries look to be of the lingering type.

Why Votto over Kemp?
Kemp is younger, and can steal 30+

Rios had a career year, and Ethier can't hit lefties, and power has dropped.
Myers seems like a easy keep.
