I'd keep Tulo for $6, and I think I'd keep Dempster for $5 as well rather than Chipper for $24 and Victorino for $20.

I would try and get Abreu, Chipper, and Victorino back at the auction for similar or lower prices.

I agree that Tulo and Dempster are your best values. That said, I think 2008 was a bit flukey for Dempster, and I'd look to move him.

[Dan Charette]

I like Tulo since he comes cheap. He should rebound. I also like DeRosa at $5.00 . His versitility is real nice at a good price. You'll have plenty of money for the auction.

[Ichabod]

I really wasn't to sure about Chipper anyway, & had consider Tulo instead, but I never thought about keeping Dempster.

[Halo Homers]

My comments along the lines of others.

Keep Tulo. I would also keep Nady at $4.

Drop Chipper and Victorino.

More leverage during draft, and players you're keeping might perform as well or better, especially Tulo at a thin SS position. Tulo is worth a lot of $$$ if you don't like him, so at least keep and trade him.

[MaudDib]

I think I would go with Tulo and Nady. Just not sure about Dempster. And you could probably get Chipper back at similar value.

Tulo - Nady

tulo and dempster. nady is undervalued at $4, but you can always get a cheap OF late like a crisp to vill your victorino hole if you dont get him back. u can probably get chipper back for similar price, but no way your gettin dempster back for anywhere around $5
