burrell and cueto for me, I think burrell will have a decent year in that rays lineup and cueto was great at one point, can he keep it up? the potential is definetly there, i would give him a shot ;-D

I like konerko and beltre also but ur position players already have sure spot in ur roster so those 2 wont do much for ya. ;-D

if ya can:

Ditto. Burrell and Cueto are the best bets. Burrell is as consistent as they come; you know exactly what you're going to get. Cueto is a high upside pick. He won't pick up a ton of wins, but he's a good bet to put up Slowey's '08 lines and has a decent shot at being a top 25 starter.

I like Burrel and Cueto but I also like Jones but if you want to play it safe take Burrel and Cueto you could use the extra power.

Don't you guys think that i should be picking up a closer with this pick? I was leaning towards Qualls for one of the picks.

I would go with Qualls(you need to fill that last RP position) and Burrell.

please help

I may go with Qualls/Cueto based on your needs. Although Burrell could be nice i suppose, he has always been a fringe OF to me. I could actually make an argument for Nelson Cruz over Burrell as well. If you were to take on a hitter, then I would recommend trading off Michael Young if you could. He's really not that tight if he's not playing SS, and since you have Hardy, hes less valuable to you than to someone else.

Qualls and Konerko. Konerko was banged up last year but finished strong. I think he rebounds back around 30/100. I don't know what closers are left for you but it doesn't look like much. Grab Qualls as your second closer before it gets ugly.
