I am in an 8 player keeper league. I have one of the bottom worst keepers in the league. I had to trade drat picks just to have some of these guys:
Dan Uggla Jay Bruce Mike Napoli Adam Jones Drew Stubbs Ryan Howard Zack Greinke Daniel Hudson
I traded a 2nd and a 3rd to acquire Greinke, Napoli, and Jones.
I have the 2nd pick in the draft. The first pick is going to be Jason Heyward according to the person who has it.
Available players: Michael Morse Michael Bourn BJ Upton Michael Cuddyer Howie Kendrick Dee Gordon Paul Goldschmidt
Yu Darvish Josh Johnson Ricky Romero Drew Storen Jordan Zimmermann
I am leaning toward taking Paul Goldschmidt since he is a young 1b with huge power upside. However Yu Darvish is also intriguing to me. Who would you take and why?

I am with them but another order. Darvish or Morse. I really think Darvish is going to be pretty good and I think you could trade him in a month or two and get a lot more than Morse for him.

Because this is such a shallow league, you can find any of these guys production pretty easily. Might as well take the guy who has a chance to be stud.

C Mike Napoli 1b Ryan Howard 2b Dan Uggla OF Jay Bruce, Adam Jones, Drew Stubbs SP Zack Greinke, Daniel Hudson
Michael Morse Michael Bourn Brett Lawrie any sleeper 3b available?
Morse is your guy you'll need a 1b and a steady influence. You might as well outslug and out speed everyone else since your BA will be so low. Bourn would be a nice balancing selection as well.
The best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be!
