I personally prefer Bruce, although the differences in draft rounds make it extremely close. I'd probably base my decision on who you think other teams will keep...will there be more 1Bs available in the draft or more OFs?

Because of the round given up, I keep Votto.

It's only cheating on your favorite team if you get caught... Like the '07 Series.

Iwamora? WTF would you keep Iwamora? Does defense count in this fantasy league?

Votto is better than Bruce even if their round penalties were the same, especially in an OBP league, but both are way better than Iwamora.
