[roamwood]

Rank these recent MILBs, recent callups, and young MLBs...

Evan Longoria
Brandon Wood
Homer Bailey
Andrew Miller
Howie Kendrick
Stephen Drew
Elijah Dukes
Andy Laroche

I have all of these players in a keeper league (keep 12 total), and I will have to make some hard decisions at the end of the year. Wondering your thoughts on the "studliness" of the above players.

thanks...WHIR

real quick....

Howie Kendrick
Stephen Drew
Homer Bailey
Evan Longoria
Andrew Miller
Elijah Dukes
Andy Laroche
Brandon Wood


I like Longoria but I'll take the 2 other guys slightly higher since they have 300+ MLB ABs under their belt.

Thanks for the responses so far...I realize it is early, but I am trying to get a handle one which guys to look for so that I can work some trades to move the other ones....right now I am thinking...

Kendrick
Longoria
Drew
Bailey
Dukes
Wood
Miller
Laroche

My other keepers are (Derek Lee, David Wright, Carl Crawford, Vernon Wells, Roy Oswalt, Roy Halladay, Carlos Zambrano, and Scott Kazmir).

I will probably be able to keep 4 of the above total....Keep the responses coming if you have an opinion. I value this board's input highly.

Your pitching is solid so id prob just keep Bailey or try and trade him.

Keep these 4

Kendrick
Longoria
Bailey
Drew

You already have Dwright so keeping LaRoche or Wood would be overkill, but hang onto Longoria. He could be special.

I am a little surprised to see Miller so high on a few of your lists. Would any of you recommend the trading of one of my other pitchers:

Zambrano, Halladay, or Oswalt (dont want to trade Kazmir at this point) and going with a pitching staff of:

Miller, Bailey, Halladay, Oswalt, Kazmir (for example)....

Or should I play it safe and trade Miller for a midround pick (I would probably get a top round pick for Zambrano).

Let me know what you think....thanks for the responses.
