I am in a 14 team mixed roto league. I have the 2nd overall pick so I know I am taking Pujols if Hanley is gone. I have the 27th and 30th picks next and that is a little to early for Kemp. Besides I am targeting two other players with those picks. Kemp is ranked 59th on CBS sportsline and I have the 57th pick. Where has he gone in other drafts.

If you're in a league with guys that know what they're doing, I don't think you'll see Kemp at 57. Unless you're in a league that penalizes strikeouts or another configuration that would hurt his value. Cross your fingers, though. It could happen.

4th round in a league that large, NO way.... he'll go third, maybe early third....

Would ya'll take him at pick 30 or is that to early.

my 2 12 team leagues that ive drafted thus far this year on yahoo he went 47th and 48th, but neither were keepers just redrafts... i don't think 30th would be to far of a stretch... gotta kind of see how the draft is going, he won't be there at anything 50+ in any league...

help me out...

I don't think pick 30 is that bad for a potential 20HR/30SB, .300 hitter.

Kemp should be a third rounder IMO. So, depending on your league, you can have a few managers who are willing to take a high-reward hitter such as Kemp there. I'd consider him at pick 30 out of a couple of others for sure.
