Keeper help - Lincecum or Holliday?

[Big Cat Court]

so you think Wright is worth the 4th pick overall? That is where I would take him if I keep him.

I do thinkhe is worth approximately a fourth overall pick, but even if he was somewhere around 7 or 8 in your mind, I would still keep him. I assume that there is a good chance that people will hang on to Pujols, Han Ram, Arod, Reyes, etc. and it would be a crapshoot if you would be able to get anyone better than Wright with the fourth pick in that scenario.

I'm confused, why can't you keep lincecum and billingsley? I would love to have wright/lincecum/billingsley/votto as keepers under your setup and then draft 4th in 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th rounds.

I can keep Lincecum and Billingsley. I can't keep both Holliday and Lincecum. I also just found out that we can't keep our first rounder, so I have to keep A. Ramirez as a 4th round pick or not keep anyone from rounds 2-5. I am really feeling nervous about Holliday in Oakland. I am dead set on keeping Billingsley as a 10th rounder, but I am still on the fence about Holliday or Lincecum, Upton or Votto.

Wright/Lincecum/Billingsley/Votto.

If you pick 4th, you lose no value in Wright.

Lincecum is a steal in the 4th, and if I was in a league where he fell that far, I'd break my own rules to draft him.

Bill and Votto are solid values at those draft positions.

I'd keep Timmy over Holliday. Tim's best is ahead of him and Holliday's best is behind him. He's not going to have the same kind of numbers in Oakland. To get the best pitcher in round 6 is the value here - forget Holliday's big name from the past few seasons as he won't offer the same kind of return he used to.

Keep Lince. Since you have the 4th pick in the draft you're likely to get Wright right back (and if not, Pujols, Hanley, A-Rod, MCab, or Reyes are all excellent consolation prizes). At that point you'd likely have Wright+ARam+Lince+Bills+Votto which is an excellently balanced start to the draft. Holliday will be the same Holliday he was with the Rockies, but you don't need him as much as you need Lince.
