Napoli easily, he sticks out like a sore thumb on that list.

Napoli is the best of the bunch but I do have to wonder if he will get enough at bats. Especially after his surgery. Other than him, I would close my eyes and pick one. Then just watch the WW during the season and see if one gets hot.

Is this AL-only?

Big Nap is a good pick, but what about C. Snyder, R. Hernandez or I. Rodriguez?

help me?

Napoli is the best huh?

Ahouldn't Veritek get full time duty and won't Napoli be a pure platoon?

That's a crapfest. If it's Roto with BA concerns I'd consider punting the position until Wieters is up. }:-)

I'd go with Baker.

He's a huge sleeper right now, playing in an offense that should score plenty of runs. If you look at his line last year in 200 AB's (.299/.392/.447) and currently hitting .368/.442/.447 this spring, and you can see why many are high on this kid, including myself.

Definitely go with Baker.
