I need one keeper from the following list. The number after the name is the round that they would count against in a 22 round, 5x5 roto league. We can keep these players for up to three years and this is the first year.

Chase Utley - 2
Evan Longoria - 2
Pablo Sandoval - 12
Ben Zobrist - 18
Matt Holliday - 4
Carlos Gonzalez - 18
Nelson Cruz - 17
Brett Anderson - 18
Felix Hernandez - 9

I have the first pick, so taking Utley at the end of the 2nd round looks like a great value to me, though so do Zobrist and Hernandez. Thoughts?

Utley over Felix and Holliday

Is the difference in Utley and Zobrist really so great that Zobrist in the 18th isn't a better value?

It's a tough call, but I would say that Utley has more of a proven track record... you could also make a case for Longoria too. Then try to target someone like Zobrist later.

I like Longoria, but I feel there are plenty of great 3B options after the 3rd round, Utley is a 1st round Talent and after the top 3 the talent gets weak, so I say go with Utley.

help with mine, please?
