I'm in a 4 player keeper league . MY other 3 KEEPERS are :
1. Miguel Cabrera 1B 3B 2 Utley 2B 3. Matt Holliday OF
We do 8X8 - avg, runs , SB ,2b ,3b, HR ,RBI ,OBP
Our Positions are: c ,1b , 2b ,ss ,3b , of , of , of , utility , utility
HERE'S my dilema , I love the #'s PEDROIA put up last year and it will be hard to throw him back in the draft , BUT it will give me two 2B men ...... I thought about trading either PEDROIA OR UTLEY for a top notch player and use the 1 i don't trade at 2B ....... OR should i just keep PEdroia .... or throw him back in and keep BIG PAPI or CARLOS LEE ???? PLEASE HELP !! WHIR !

Assuming you make no trades (which throws a wrench in this, because if you trade a keeper, you really should hope to get a keeper back) it comes down to Pedroia or Lee, to me. I don't really trust Ortiz' wrists, and he's getting up there so his bat speed is declining a bit, anyway. (Don't get me wrong, I still like him, but you can pick him back up in the draft.)
So between Pedroia and Lee, I say Lee, with your scoring. Yes, you'll lose a few hits, about 10 steals and maybe 10-ish doubles. But the difference in average is negligible and you get better power numbers.
It's only cheating on your favorite team if you get caught...Like the '07 Series.
