Who should I target in a keeper league? Christian Yelich vs Jonathan Singleton? I need to replace Ryan Howard and would like some advice on who has the higher upside. Also note that Anthony Rizzo is a possiblility to be there in the draft as well. Any advice would be helpful

They are pretty close. At this point, I might give the edge to Yelich because he adds speed to the mix. Then again, Singleton should be a better bet with power and hitting in general. Yeah, I'd go Singleton actually.

Both of them are in the OF though, so not sure how long they will be eligible at 1B.

Singleton. More power and I think Houston will look to get him a spot as soon as he is ready.

I like both guys, but I am super high on Yelich. I like his frame at 6'4". I love the BB% (10.6) & K% (19.6%) at his age. The ISO sat at .171 last season (15 HR, 32 2B). Good speed also (32 steals). Not bad for a first full season. He could become a 5 tool fantasy stud.
