2 picks left in 12 team draft...

Postby mister_jay_peg » Mon Mar 02, 2009 5:58 am

12 team slow draft, C-SS, 3OF, 2Util, 3SP, 2RP, 3P, 5 Bench. H2H Standard 5x5
10 keepers, and I draft second in a snake draft.

I just finished my second to last turn, and I have a few days (20 picks) until my last 2 picks come up.

There is almost no SP left, (Sonnanstine, Litsch, J Sanchez) but some solid RP's (Zumaya, Balfour, Saito, Shields, Arredondo, Delcarmen) on the board. Best OF's on the board are Dukes, Guillen, Bourne, Lewis, Kubel, Headley. IF positions are basically tapped of any decent fantasy talent. Guys like F Lopez, Kotchman, Kouz, and Renteria are all that's left.

Any and all ideas, nudges, hints, recommendations would be quite helpful.

C: Posada
1B: M. Cabrera
2B: Uggla
3B: Figgins
SS: Theriot
OF: Holliday, Granderson, Milledge
Util: Loney, Ad Jones

SP: Peavy
SP: Oswalt
SP: Lester
RP: KRod
RP: Bell
P: Wheeler
P: Verlander
P: Kuroda

Bench: B Lyon
Bench: R Soriano
Bench: K Greene
Bench: ???
Bench: ???

At this stage of the draft its a crapshoot, take on flier on Rich Hill if he is still available. A couple others to think about:

SP Rich Hill
OF Cameron Maybin

You've already got a plethora of RPs, so while I like Arredondo and Balfour as late picks I'd pass on them in favor of Sanchez. I'm not really sold on Theriot as a viable SS, but I'm really interested to see what F. Lopez can do leading off in AZ. See if you can work him in there.

It's an ESPN league, and Sanchez only has 2B eligible. Still open to drafting him, but not mainly as a SS replacement.
