Yeah Morales at this point could really pay off for you.

I agree with Morales, but I want to highlight Justin Smoak on that list. He started off very well before being derailed by personal issues (he had to deal with the death of a family member) and injuries. He hits from the left side most of the time, and Safeco is much friendlier on lefties. I think people are completely down on him but it's easy to forget he was a top, top prospect getting compared to Mark Teixeira in the not-too-distant past. Obviously he's not a slam-dunk choice or even a first choice off that list, but he's off a lot of people's radar and he's got "post-hype sleeper" written all over him. If he does break out he'd be a great addition to a dynasty league because of his youth.

Thanks for all the advice, everybody. I decided to gamble a bit. First I took Kendrys Morales and then I took Justin Smoak with my next pick (five spots later). Figured they all offered low risk, high reward potential (round 18 and 19).
Please help me with analyzing my team? viewtopic.php?f=29&t=433592
