Allowed to keep 4 people drafted after round 6 last year. Already Keeping Hamilton, Soto. Debating between which other two to keep, between:

Alexei Ramirez
Jacoby Ellsbury
Jay Bruce
Joba Chamberlain

For each keeper, i lose the 7th round pick for the 1st, 8th for the 2nd, etc...have to choose today. Any advice is welcome, WHIR!!!

It is between Joba and Ellsbury...
Its a close call but I like Ellsbury better overall
both are good...but Ellsbury is a stronger blue chipper

please look at mine

It's a tough decision. First off, I wouldn't even think about keeping Chamberlain from that group.
I think I would keep Ramirez . The debate to me would be between Bruce and Ellsbury. A strong case could be made for either one. Neither would be a bad pick. I personally would keep Bruce over Ellsbury, because I think Bruce has higher upside.

I like Bruce and Ramirez.

Bruce and Ramirez for me as well.

Would appreciate insight on my topic, thanks.

If you're not in a 2 C league, I'd punt away Soto in favor of Alexei, Ellsbury, and Bruce.

now i am just deciding between bruce and ellsbury. i think ellsbury is two great categories, and i am worried about bruce's average and potential sophomore slump. also as a note, i can't keep any of these guys past this season. thanks, WHIR!
