I think Justin Upton and Jay Bruce will probably be floating around 90-100 as well. Closers need to go a bit later, along with C.

[BitterDodgerFan]

forgot to mention that stephen drew should be at least included in the "just missed" category.

Looks like everyone is pretty confident with:
8 David Wright, 3B, NYM
9 Ryan Braun, OF, MIL
10 Miguel Cabrera, 1B/3B, DET

Which is going to make my decision in only keeping 2 of them pretty difficult.

if I had to choose two of those three I would definitely go with Wright and Braun

[abrage22]

Derek Lee is also way to low

I agree that sounds like the easy call but Cabrera has been murdering the ball the second half and was ahead of Braun before the season. Then again, Wrights steals are way down which was pulling a lot of his value, so I dont know that he is a lock here either. All that said, I would take Wright and Cabrera, but I would shop 2 to try to get Hanley, Arod, or Pujols.

I'd probably go Braun/MCab over Wright in a keeper.

I would love to give 2 for any of those 3 and a draft pick.
