Help me pick my last Keeper - WHIR AS ALWAYS!!!

Postby eazyb81 » Sun Mar 08, 2009 12:36 pm

My league allows each team to keep six players from the previous year. Right now, here are the ones I am basically set on keeping:

Hanley - SS
Lincecum - SP
Kinsler - 2B
Markakis - OF
Quentin - OF

That leaves me with one to pick out of this group:

Billingsley - SP
Hart - OF
Soto - C
Victorino - OF

I am strongly leaning towards Bills but wanted to get some input before I finalized it. Here are my league's stat categories:

Offense - R, H, 2B, 3B, HR, RBI, SB, BB, K, AVG,

Defense - IP, W, CG, SV, H, HR, K, ERA, WHIP, K/BB

Thanks for the input guys!

bump....

Bills does seem like the obvious choice, but some people have Victorino and Hart ranked higher than him.

Bills for me here also, since you already have 2 great OF, finding 1 more decent on in the draft should be simple enough ;-D

I'll go with Billingsley although I'd give consideration to Soto if you start 2 C's.

Gotta go Billingsley. Your outfield is off to a good start already. Don't keep a catcher!

good luck

thanks for help with mine.

Standard league - we don't start 2 catchers.

I've gotta admit, I'm surprised that it's a unanimous decision in favor of Bills so far. Most places have Hart and/or Victorino rated ahead of Billingsley.
