Adrian Gonzalez with my next pick??

Postby NittanyLions1 » Sat Feb 14, 2009 11:52 pm

Hello all,
I have a post below but it got so far off the topic I figured I would start a new thread.

My question...do I take Adrian Gonzalez at pick #75. I'm also looking at Kemp since its a keeper league but right now Gonzo is more proven and I can only keep 6 next year anyway. Its a 14-team head-to-head POINTS league and we count everything. Pitchers have flown off the board so far but here is the best of hitters and pitchers left. We keep 6 next year. THANKS FOR ALL INPUT and WHIR!

Top players on the board
Hitters: AGonzalez, Granderson, Rios, Kemp, Ordonez
Pitchers: Bedard, CRYoung, Garza, Cain, Nolasco, JJohnson, Lilly, Harang, Bedard, Vazquez, Fuentes, MRivera, Grienke, Pelfrey, Valverde

STARTING POSITIONS
C
1B - Cabrera (keeper)
2B - Kinsler (keeper)
SS - HRamirez (keeper)
3B
OF - Hamilton (keeper)

P (start 14) - Gallardo (1st pick this year at #66)

Thanks for the reply...Cabrera isnt eligible at 3B. But I have a DH and 2 Utility spots to fill so it is basically whoever will give me the most points at this point in the draft. Think I also may be able to get Kemp later...

Thanks everyone...looks like the consensus is Kemp but I actually already picked Gonzo a little bit ago. He was just too much value not to take at 75. Plus he is proven and also outscored Kemp 487 to 408 in my league last year. I love Kemp and will take him next time I am up if he still there as I think he breaks out big this year but I am betting he may still be on the board next time I am up. My other reason was while Kemp would be a great keeper, I only have 1 more spot left for next year (If I keep Kinsler, Cabrera, Hanley, Hamilton, and Gallardo) and I am targeting Upton later on for that spot as I think long term he could prove just as valuable as Kemp. My other possible keeper target is Kershaw since I could use another pitcher besides Gallardo to keep for next year...I don't like keeping pitchers but my league is pitcher heavy and most top ones are being kept. We'll see how it plays out tho...THANKS AGAIN EVERYONE!
