Which 3B to draft in a 12 team H2H keeper? *WHIR*

Postby Barnes » Thu Mar 26, 2009 11:26 am

I am in a 12 team H2H 5x5 standard keeper league. My keepers are:
1. Prince Fielder, 1B
2. Chase Utley, 2B
3. Josh Hamilton, OF
4. CC Sabathia, SP
5. Francisco Liriano, SP.

Now as everyone knows, 3b is the most shallow position this season, and obviously all the top tier 3b were kept. I have the 6th pick in the draft comming up on saturday and my first pick will hopefully be Webb/McCann (haven't decided). However i traded my 2nd round pick for Fielder, so i do not pick again until the 3rd round. And i expect i will draft a 3b then to try to some-what fill the void.

The 3b available are:
Chipper
Beltre
Huff
Zimmerman
Gordon
Guillen, Carlos
Atkins
DeRosa
Reynolds
Lowell
etc...

I think my first choice would be Atkins...as chipper hits for AVG but is as old as time and i had Zimmerman last season and didnt like what i saw.

In which order would your top 5 be?

same with with SS

Young
Furcal
Hardy
Tulo
Drew
cabrera, orlando
Tejada (booooo)
Greene
Peralta
Aviles
Theriot
and others are still avail. Who would be your top 5??

Chris Davis(if available) would be my first choice in the ballpark of those you mentioned.
Next, Chipper, Atkins, Figgins and EE.

For 3B, I am not that high on Garrett this year. I like:

Davis
Chipper (will produce, always does, can sell high on him in May or have someone on the bench who can step in a few days at a time after Larry's injuries)
Atkins
Figgins

What do you think of my club?

I'd probably go: Chipper, Zimmerman, Gordon

As for SS: is Alexi Ramirez available. He's widely being talked about as being SS eligible very early this year, so he may be a good option if you have a MI category.
