Better Infield???

Postby theinflatinator91 » Fri Feb 13, 2009 10:04 pm

I have been doing many many mocks this off-season and was looking for some input. This is a 10 team H2H league. We get one keeper that was added from FA in the league I get Alexei Ramirez.

I have been able to get these on command. Which infield is better and why?

Infield One:
1b - Prince Fielder (third round)
2b - Alexei Ramirez (keeper)
3b - Evan Longoria (second round)
SS - Jose Reyes (first round)

Infield Two:
1b - Lance Berkman (second round)
2b - Dustin Pedroia (third round)
3b - Alex Rodriguez (first round)
SS - Alexei Ramirez (keeper)

Infield Two:
1b - Lance Berkman (second round)
2b - Brian Roberts (third round)
3b - Alex Rodriguez (first round)
SS - Alexei Ramirez (keeper)

Thanks...

I would throw INF 3 out, because it doesn't make sense draft round value-wise, though I like the SBs that Roberts would contribute.
INF 2 doesn't give you the best balance of your choices, but gives you the best quality of players overall, IMO. Nothing wrong with that start by any means, and you can make up for any deficiancies (butchered that word, for sure) with your OF selections. This option does have nice balance, but not extreme.
I kind of lean towards INF 1, though I, personally, am not that high on Prince 'I won't eat meat' Fielder. That infield gives you one heckofa balanced start with nice upside, giving you the ability to go after the best OFers available, not having to target one specific thing.
