12 teams, standard 5x5, 10 keepers (no limits or restrictions on keepers).
The 9 bolded guys are the ones I'm pretty damned sure about. I was all set to keep Strasburg, but when he got hurt I found Ellsbury laying around on the WW, and now Ellsbury kinda seems like the better choice. He would fill out my LF/CF/RF group rather nicely, and a couple broken ribs shouldn't ruin his SB production.
I'll have the 4th pick in each round of the next draft, if that matters very much.
Keep Ellsbury or Strasburg?

Re: Keep Ellsbury or Strasburg?
yea obviously ellsbury. you already got 3 pitchers with good future ahead, so you don't need strasburg who is out for the coming season.
Re: Keep Ellsbury or Strasburg?
If you had multiple DL spots and weak keeper choices I could see maybe wanting to hold Strasburg for a year. But if its Ellsbury or Stras you definetely want to go with the speedster, who was a 2nd or 3rd round pick this year. He should be fine for the future and a long term keeper for you. Kinda suprised someone didn't hold on to him in a league where you bring back 120...

Re: Keep Ellsbury or Strasburg?
Ellsbury is a magnet for injuries. I guess I would go with him. Wieters is a nice risk/reward keeper. Though, you would not be faulted for throwing him out in place of Desmond Jennings or MadBum, but you don't need an OF if your keeping Ells.

Re: Keep Ellsbury or Strasburg?
Given your young SP strength, I would go with Ellsbury.
At least you'll be right for 2011
