This is a nobrainer. I don't see a cut player that would be close to your #7 keeper.

Personally I like Lackey instead of Felix. Felix has missed starts each year in the league, is a liability in WHIP, and is unlikely to get good run support (thus possibly fewer wins). But this is a nice keeper list.

You missed one important piece of info about Felix. He is only 22 years old. I know it seems like we have talked about him for 5 years now, but he is still only 22.

I'd rather have McCann over either Bay or Felix. I would put him as the #1 catcher next year. That would get you someone better than either in a trade.

What kind of OF could McCann get me? I'd only keep him if i could get someone better than bay, which i can't be too sure of

You guys are selling Bay short. He should see a ton of great pitches in Boston and played great there after the trade. He's not old either. I wouldn't be surprised to see power numbers from 05-06 next year from him.

Also, about McCann. The only thing he provides from the catcher position is an added amount of power. His other stats don't really help you much. He's already keeping Howard and A-Rod, who are arguably the best two home-run hitters in baseball. There's no reason to hold onto McCann when he could strengthen his pitching staff by keeping Felix alongside Hamels. Ab is a smart guy, I am sure he can find great catching value later in the draft.
