Nice to see people are liking Zimmerman, I took him in the 6th round of a cafe league and was wondering if I was abnormally high on him.
Conor Jackson is pretty underrated, hitting third in a good ballpark, good lineup can get on base and stay there, and will have a full time spot this year over splitting with Tony Clark.
Not going off of anything, but drafts I have participated in, I'd say the following are going later than they should.
Hideki Matsui Pedro Martinez Ben Sheets Kelly Johnson Chris Snyder Jhonny Peralta Chris Young...SP del Padres and...my sleeper Wilson Betemit...SS eligible.
MANNY RAMIREZ -he will have a season comparable to the 2006 season which makes him a 2nd round pick. He's been falling to the 4th round, and from what I hear, a guy that is that selfish and motivated by money, you can only expect huge numbers out of him in this contract year.

--------------- If Manny has a year comparable to 2006 that would make him a nice grab in the 4th round. If Ibanez has a season comparable to 2006 that would make him a really nice grab in the teens.
Sure those stats are probably a good estimate of Swish's potential, but you can't forget that Swish has only once topped .260, only once topped 30 HR's, and has never reached 100 RBI's. Yes, I know he was in a terrible line-up and terrible ball park. My last MDP report has Swisher going in the 9th, which IMO is about right for him.
