Next Pick...

Postby BigW27 » Tue Mar 10, 2009 4:26 pm

13 Team Keeper League(5)
Style: Roto

My Keepers:
Utley, Ortiz, Rios, Mclouth, Ludwick

I've selected so far: Haren and Chris Davis

Next pick: Thinking about going with Either: Tulowitski, Kazmir or Huff (since the 1st basemen spot is running dry) Or should I just wait for either Pena or Delgado?

Here are some of the names out there:

Scott Kazmir, Tulowitski, Michael Young, Adam Dunn, Garett Atkins, Aubrey Huff, Jermaine Dye, Dan Uggla, Jhonny Peralta, Cliff Lee, Carlos Delgado, Carlos Pena, Jose valverde, Volquez, Shileds, Fuentes

Thank you gentlemen

Do you have a spot for Ethier, since you have 3 OF and a UTIL already?

Ethier or Shields for me.

know that in washington... adam dunn will be reacquiring 1B eligibility... it'll take about two weeks to kick in (depending on your league)... but 40 HR's and 100RBI's are seriously tempting... especially with the positional flexibility. I'd roll with him as your lineup could use more pop.

Atkins is a prime bounceback candidate that late. Uggla is also a very good option as the 4th best 2B in the game.

His Batting Avg and high K rate is what turns me off, I'm going to be getting allot of those already from Chris Davis. But I may have no choice.

Do you have a MI spot?

I might go Uggla then.
Peralta is a ss entering his prime who could hit 30 hrs.
Just be aware that Dunns career hr splits are 150/128 (Cincy).

These are the Roster Positions:

C, 1B, 2B, 3B, SS, OF, OF, OF, Uti

What do you think of taking a chance on Tulowitski? I've narrowed It down to him and Dunn.

Tulowitski is a high risk player I don't mind taking a chance on.

Dunn is that power bat that I need at 1st Base. He's like a cheaper Ryan Howard.

Go with your gut, lol.

Tulo. Davis and Ludwick are already borderline BA guys, Dunn could really pull it down.
