Reyes gets criticised in terms of real life baseball, though his fantasy value is obvious. Felix? I guess you missed the 'King Felix is Dog Dookie' thread then.
Post your team then. Don't be lazy. Most of my decisions on who to include are based on how many threads I see about the players when they are playing well. I guess it's not just concerned with this year, but rather the last couple of seasons. Felix was HUGE on this site last year, and Crawford and Reyes have recieved their fair share of hype the past few seasons as well.
Well, yeah, Felix was big last year. But so was Barmes, and I wouldn't say he's hyped anymore. The pro-Bay threads were a specific reaction to the numerous 'what's wrong with Bay' threads.
C Kenji Johjima
1B Ryan Howard
2B Chase Utley
3B David Wright
SS Bill Hall (This was a hard one. Would have said Clint Barmes based on last year, but he's disappeared off the fantasy radar. Maybe Felipe Lopez?)
OF Grady Sizemore
OF Matt Holliday
OF Miguel Cabrera(OF eligible in Yahoo! leagues)
UTIL Travis Hafner
SP Cole Hamels
SP John Patterson
RP Ryan Dempster
RP Derrick Turnbow
P Francisco Liriano
P Jeremy Bonderman
P Kelvim Escobar
I gotta disagree with Bill Hall....I rarely ever see threads on him. Johjima either. The rest of the team looks about right...Escobar is loved here.

Actually, I didn't see his name yet, but Figgins needs to make this team for sure. Maybe it's just my perception, but I feel like the Cafe has a collective man-crush on that guy.

Is there anything fluffier than a cloud?
If there is, I don't want to know about it.

If I had to choose between Figgins and Utley, I would say that Utley gets more love around here.

Add Matt Holliday to that list and it looks good

Example...
C- Madison
1B- Arlo
2B- Mookie
etc...

the only 2B Mookie is going to see, is if she is retired or collecting Social Security, and is looped on Mai Tais
