keepers

[Crunchers]

i am in a 12 team 5x5 roto keeper league. Our keeper rules are up to 4 max and the keeper will be kept two rounds above of last years draft round. I am interested in acquiring A rios, C Gonzalez, C mcgehe, Jason Heyward

Player - this years draft round - next years keeper draft round
A. Rios - 13 -11/12
C Gonzalez - 13 -11/12
C McGehe - ww - 22
J Heyward - 17 - 15

my roster ( )=next years keeper draft round
C. C Santana (22)
1b. K Yukilis (3)
2b. R Brigniac (22)
3b. R Zimmerman (1)
SS. A Gonzalez (22)
Of. C Crawford (2)
Of. A Dunn (4)
Of. A Jones ( 6)
Util - C Pena (10)
Bn. J Willingham (22)
bn. J Posada (11)
bn, Jay Bruce (12)
bn. D Stubbs (20)
bn. J Ellsburry (1)
bn/dl - C Utley (1)


My keeper ranking value
C Utley (1)
C Crawford (2)
C Santatna (22)
4. ???? youkilis, stubbs, ??? trade for another

What are my top four keepers for next year and should I trade for another keeper, if so which one and who do I offer for them?

Your keeper rules are confusing as all hell man, but you can't keep a guy from the same round hense why youre not keeping Zim, Ells, Utley and Youk? cause those make the most sense to me... I like Jay Bruce, and depending on when you have to decide to make your keepers I would consider Alex Gonzalez even, clear up your question and I think you'll get better help...

Good Luck

it seems confusing but isn't really. its the first year we are using this rule

to clarify.

I can keep 0 to any 4 guys I want.

Whoever I keep will be kept 2 rounds higher than the previous years draft round
if a player was drafted in round 13 the previous year his keeper value for the next year would be round 11
if i keep two players that were drafted in round 13 the previous year they would take up my 11th and 12th round picks
If I keep a WW player they would take up the second to last round draft pick
If I keep 4 players that were all picked up from the WW. They would take up my last four picks of the draft
If I keep C Crawford, C. Utley, K Youkilis, R Zimmerman or J ellsbury. They would take up my first four round draft picks

So if two players would take up the same round such as round 2 they would be slotted in the 2nd and 3rd round slots
I realized I forgot to add my pitching

My pitchers are (keeper round)
U Jimenez (7)
J Vazquez (6)
these are the only two that are possibly worth keeping

O and what is A dunns value if he goes to the yankees or rays??
