7 Guys for 5 Keeper Spots

Postby perlick29 » Sun Mar 15, 2009 4:46 pm

I've identified 7 guys of which I can only keep 5. I have 3 Locks but here they all are:

1)Jose Reyes
2)Miguel Cabrera
3)Zack Greinke
4) Adam Dunn
5)Matt Garza
6)Brian Fuentes
7)Erik Bedard

So, who should it be? I certainly WHIR.

Forget the man crush. I drop what I'm doing to watch Zack Greinke pitch.

Now i would say Fuentes but if this is a 12 team league you should get him or another solid closer back in the draft anyway.

Agreed. I'm not a big Garza fan and although he's younger and less of an injury risk than Bedard is he doesn't have the same upside as EB.

5)Matt Garza

Way too much health risk with Bedard for me to consider keeping him.

First four are locks. I think I'd take a chance on Bedard.

I'd take a chance on Bedard... Just the same I think Fuentes (though not the keeper in a 5 keeper league) is safest and in this case only, would be tempted.
