Draft help... WHIR if you leave a link!!....

I would have to agree with the others. I think Zimmerman is your best option. You need a 3B and I actually think he is very good value where you are getting.

As far as arms there are definitely some good ones left with Cain/Wainwright/and Greinke still available. Ultimately though, you need a 3B and there is a very good 3B available, so it seems pretty simple.

I also like Harang this year if he is still around when you finally get another pick.

I'd go Zim or Peralta for hitters. If you want to shore up pitching go with Cain or Grienke. Good luck.

gotsta go zim since you need a 3B and thats one stiff position with arod going down.... peralta will probably put up better numbers tho IMO, so value peralta, position scarcity and needs ZIMMERMAN.... help with mine if you can

i know i should really really go after a SP, but when i was posting this would it be to my advantage to sit on a SP and snag Justin Upton while hes still there? or just go ahead and grab that SP when i get to pick we will be basically in the equivalent of the 13th round of a 12 team draft...i have my 6th and 7th round picks lost my 8th in a trade then have all the rest of the draft picks... what do yall think?

[Malton]

Not sure if its too late, but i'd go with Zimmerman.

Not sure if its too late, but i'd go with Zimmerman.

already did, the updated question is the last question on page 2...

[Malton]

How long do you think Wieters will be available? You're set at C, but he may a special player.

I would wait on pitching. For the INF slot there are still some good players left...Peralta, Encarnacion, Cano, Kendrick. I see the need for more HRs. I would go with Peralta b/c he is in his prime and in the middle of a good Cleveland order. He will outproduce Hardy this year...bet on it. Then that leaves Hardy and Mauer as Trade bait for another OF that u could also play at U. Carl Crawford to give you more SB's possibly???? I would have to say that in Round 7 you could go for Josh Johnson and round 9 Gavin Floyd. Then look at Slowey or Baker. Thanks for your advice on my post. Hope this helped.

Hey man, thanks for the help with my Soriano-CC-Pedroia deal...

I would say Zimmerman is your choice. I like the addition of Dunn, as it gives Zim some much-needed protection. He will continue to develop and I think he is your man. Young is not a bad choice either, but the upside is with Zim.
