Scoring is below. I can keep from 4 to 6 players. We have a snake draft, and we lose a certain round pick for each keeper. Here are my certain keepers and the round I would lose. I already know I have the #11 pick:
Utley (1) Sabathia (3) Kemp (9) Butler (16)
I can pick 2 more and here are the choices. Who would YOU pick?
Jered Weaver (14) De La Rosa (18) Blanton (20) Kuroda (20) Homer Bailey (26) Markakis (4) Ibanez (8)
At Bats (AB) .25 Runs (R) 1 Singles (1B) 1 Doubles (2B) 2 Triples (3B) 3 Home Runs (HR) 4 Runs Batted In (RBI) 2 Stolen Bases (SB) 2 Caught Stealing (CS) -2 Walks (BB) 1 Intentional Walks (IBB) 1 Hit By Pitch (HBP) 1 Strikeouts (K) -1 Ground Into Double Play (GIDP) -2 Errors (E) -2
Pitchers Stat Category Value Wins (W) 5 Losses (L) -5 Complete Games (CG) 5 Shutouts (SHO) 10 Saves (SV) 5 Outs (OUT) 1 Hits (H) -1 Earned Runs (ER) -2 Home Runs (HR) -2 Walks (BB) -1 Hit Batters (HBP) -1 Strikeouts (K) 1 Batters Grounded Into Double Plays (GIDP) 2 Holds (HLD) 4
I'd probably keep the 4 that you have and not consider adding a keeper or two. I believe DLR and Bailey are the best value options, but there's a good chance you can fetch either one in the draft. Markakis for a 4th rounder is about fair, but not particularly great value either, although Markakis is keeper-worthy.
I like De La Rosa (18), Weaver (14), and Bailey (26) from a value standpoint in that order. I'd consider Markakis as well because I prefer to keep hitters over pitches, but he doesn't really excite me in the 4th round.
Def keep Weaver in the 14th Then it comes down to Markakis or Bailey
The decision you have to make is would you rather have Bailey + a 4th rd pick or Nick Markakis. I personally would go with the sure thing in Markakis - In a league where every team is keeping 6 players I think that if you toss Markakis back into the draft he will prob go in the ~ 2nd round so paying a 4th rd pick for him ain't a bad deal.
Dont keep neither guy though like someone above mentioned -- If you don't want to pay a 4th rd pick for Markakis that is your decision, but then you should def keep Bailey because a 26th rd pick is practically nothing anyways

I agree with Dodger about not keeping any of these players as you can probably draft them or players of their caliber. However, if you are forced to keep two, I would go with Weaver and DLR based on value.
