Rd 2 Need Help!

Postby NUTZ » Sun Jan 04, 2009 11:01 am

This will be a 12 team 7x7 rotisserie keeper league, with 30 man rosters (25 active & 5 bench) and 5 minor league players.

The active positions are as follows: -

C, C, 1B, 2B, 3B, SS, MI, CI, OF, OF, OF, OF, OF, U, U (15 hitters)

SP, SP, SP, SP, RP, RP, RP, P, P, P (10 pitchers)

This leaves a 5 man bench, and there will be 3 DL spots.

The scoring categories are as follows: -

R, HR, RBI, SB, AVG, OBP, SLG

W, SV, K, ERA, WHIP, HLD, K/9

I had the 5th over-all pick and I selected Jose Reyes now looking ahead who should I select in rd 2 coming down?
So Far Taken:
A-Rod
Hanley Ramirez
Albert Pujols
David Wright
Jose Reyes
Evan Longoria
Grady Sizemore
Ryan Braun
Mark Teixeira
Miggy Cabrera
Dustin Pedroia
Ryan Howard
Chase Utley
Carlos Lee

I have 5 picks ahead of me...
Who should i be targeting.
Thanks for the help!

Personally I would rather u give me your top 5 guys and pick from there but however you go I think you need to go power since you already have speed and I would prefer either 1B or 3B just because OF is easier to find

My number 1 guy would be Morneau, 2 would be either Berkman or an OF since I dont see a 3B worth taking this early. Personally I would go after an OF like Hamilton, so my top 3 would be

Morneau
Hamilton
Berkman

I struggle with this myself because I always want atleast one top 10 guy but also don't want to take one too early. IMO I would shoot for the 4th round or possibly 5th depending on whats left when your 4th rounder comes up

I wouldn't touch pitchers until after 5 or 6 rounds maybe even later depending on who's available. You start 15 hitters, load up on offense first.

Lots of pitching available this yr, wait 'till 8 or 9, unless you feel the need for a top 3 arm.
