I'd probably take either Kemp (5 cat stud) or Fielder (100-50-130-.300 is possible). If you're really high on Longoria, he probably wont be there when you pick again.

Take a look at mine?

I'd take Kemp there for sure.

I take Kemp. Getting speed/power combos early is still killer; you will fill positions later.

why would u take Kemp over Fielder or Evan Longoria ????


Fielder will have elite numbers and Longoria plays in super shallow position.

I think at the 6 spot you go Fielder or Longoria -- otherwise in a head to head go pitcher.


I also have this pick, so I would like to here some views/opinions

Honestly, I'm taking Teixeria or Mauer in this spot.

At the cost of 5-8 HR by taking Teixeria instead of Fielder you should gain a good handful of runs and 20-25 points to AVG.

As for Mauer - You are going to get top 5 / top 10 OF production from the most shallow position.... this probably isn't a popular opinion but i've ran a few mocks taking Mauer in the 6-10 spot and have liked my team each time.

Kemp for me. Great power/speed base to build upon.
