This is my 2nd place roster from last year. It's a 12 team, 5x5 roto league, and I will have the 11th pick in the 1st round. I have to pick 4 from this group. Currently leaning to Teixeira, Reyes, Kemp and Peavy, but would like any opinions.

SP - Roy Halladay SP - Jake Peavy SP - Jon Garland RP - Joe Nathan RP - Mariano Rivera P - Scot Shields P - Brad Ziegler P - David Price BN - Chad Durbin BN - Jeff Samrdzija BN - John Lannan BN - Jim Johnson BN - Shaun Marcum BN - Mike Mussina BN - Dustin McGowan
The last spot comes down to Beltran, Kemp or Price. I think I would go with the more sure thing in Beltran right now but I could see either of the two as well.

Kemp is good, but Beltran is better. With 48 players being kept, you still have a good chance to get Kemp in the draft. If you didn't keep Beltran, he would easily be the first pick. I don't think it's even close.
Alright, this appears to be a consensus. I'll take my chances on getting Kemp back in the draft. He's my favorite player in baseball, so we'll see what happens.
