Now that I'm finished in fantasy football, I'm going to start working on my keeper baseball team. I'm in a 12-team, 6x6 roto (standard stat + Holds/OBP) auction league. We have a $26 budget and get to keep as many players as we can so long as we're under the budget. Here's my squad (finished fourth last year) and attached are current keeper values.

C - Y. Torreabla .10
C - D. Navarro .10
1B - P. Fielder 3.80
2B - R. Cano 1.80
SS - E. Andrus .90
3B - E. Longoria 2.60
MI - A. Hill 1.90
CI - J. Votto 2.00
OF - C. Gonzalez .10
OF - J. Willingham .70
OF - C. Rasmus .80
U - K. Morales 2.30
U - A. Cabrera .60
U - C. Figgins 1.30

SP - J. Santana 2.00
SP - J. Peavy 1.40
SP - Z. Greinke 2.50
SP - U. Jiminez .90
SP - D. Price 1.00
RP - M. Rivera 1.70
RP - H. Bell 1.60
RP - M. Thornton .70
RP - M. Lowe .10

Bench - Adam LaRoche 1.00, H. Bailey .10, R. Porcello .60, B. Arroyo .60
Minors - B. Wallas, S. Strasburg.

My biggest need for sure is an OF as I have exactly 3 of them. Would like a young 20/20 guy that's solid across the board. As luck may have it, I was offered Justin Upton ($1.60) for Hill/Morales. The trade would give me that OF I'm looking for, plus since I'm nearly five bucks over my budget, it will shave $2.60 off that $4.90 I'm over. What are your thoughts? Post a link and I will WHIR! ;-D

I think you should have taken it before you started this post & then asked what now. Thank the nice man for his gift that will keep giving

Upton will probably be a first round pick in 2011. You should do that deal. Both Hill & Morales had their career year (as of now) last year. You're shaving budget, which is good, and you still have cano and votto at 1B and 2B. Def'ly do it if that deal is still on the table.
