4th overall pick

[Saltydog]

12 team 5x5 Roto league.

Kept Kemp and McCutchen and drafting with Pick #4. Who do I take?

Utley, A-Rod, or Braun?

I'm assuming that Pujols, Hanley are going 1-2.

[HldOnMgnolia]

Utley

ARod
Braun

I like Braun more than ARod but you already have 2 other OFs...

I agree with the order of the previous reply.

[Nighttrain]

I go Braun at 4.

Utley's average has dropped 50 points over the last few years and is always on the verge of a huge injury. He's played through them but you never know. There is so much 2b depth. Take Lopez 10 rounds later and enjoy 25hr 100 rbis for cheap

I'm going ARod with that pick.

You're already keeping 2 OF and it will be easy enough to draft a 20/20 guy (there are tons of them) or find steals/HRs in the outfield.

Zobrist = Utley + 6 rounds


3b is a pretty shallow position and Arod with a full season batting around Tex and Johnson's .425 OBP is going to contribute in every stat category. No other third basemen is going to give you both power and speed. Not to mention the monkey is off Arod's back in terms of winning a championship and the steroid issue, how good could this season be for him?
