Mike Jacobs-20+ home runs and 80+ RBIs could be a very good pick late in the draft. Im worried about 1b Wes Helms though...
Doug Davis- Good source for K's
Jay Seo - actually played well for his short stint in a Mets uni..
now he's pitching in another pitcher's ballpark...
Jim Thome - 30-35 hr's is not a stretch ...
I see D Cabrera's name on here a couple of times. As a Brave fan, I know that Leo can work miracles, but as a former Cabrera owner I'd still be taking him very late.
Im definitely taking Cabrera really late..

I think Bedard is a much safer target. Bedard was looking great before his knee problem last year, and Leo will have him throwing strikes.
Agree with you about Bedard being safer, but if Cabrera can find a bit more control he could have a great year. I still think he slips to the late rounds, where he'd be nice to take a flier on.

Davis is a good call...

Is it just me, or are there less sleepers than ever before this year? There are no clear-cut guys whose stats say they were shortchanged by luck a la Millwood last year.
I think the closest thing to a sleeper there is this year is Ryan Howard.

I wouldn't consider Howard a sleeper..

.
I think it depends on how you define "sleeper." I'm thinking of it as "wildly undervalued." I'd also put RJ and Miguel Cabrera in that category.
