I need to select keepers. It's a bit trickier than usual.
It's a 14 team H2H points league.
We have to keep 8 guys. For each player we keep we have to give up the next higher draft pick from where the player was drafted at the beginning of the season. And we can only keep players drafted after round 7. FA pickups get the last available round spot. If 2 or more players have the same value they'll get the next free round value available.
Scoring for Batting Categories 1B - Singles 1 point 2B - Doubles 2 points 3B - Triples 3 points BB - Walks (Batters) 1 point CS - Caught Stealing -1 point CSC - Caught Stealing by Catcher 1 point DPT - Double Plays Turned 1 point E - Errors -1 point GDP - Ground Into Double Plays -1 point HP - Hit by Pitch 1 point HR - Home Runs 3 points OFAST - OF Assists 1 point PBC - Passed Balls by Catcher -1 point R - Runs 1 point RBI - Runs Batted In 1 point SB - Stolen Bases 2 points
Scoring for Pitching Categories B - Balks -1 point BBI - Walks Issued (Pitchers) -1 point BS - Blown Saves -3 points CG - Complete Games 10 points CGL - Complete Game Loss -5 points ER - Earned Runs -2 points HA - Hits Allowed -1 point HB - Hit Batsmen -1 point HD - Holds 3 points INN - Innings 3 points K - Strikeouts (Pitcher) 1 point PKO - Pick Offs 1 point QS - Quality Starts 5 points S - Saves 5 points W - Wins 5 points WP - Wild Pitches -1 point
As you can see due to the scoring my keeper eligble players consist mostly of pitcher (with very good value). In the last years about 25 SP went in the first 5 rounds. And while everyone overpays on SP early on I pick batters to build a strong core knowing I have low risk high reward SP as my keepers already on my team.
I added last years points scored and the pick I'd have to give up in order to keep the player.
Points list is a bit crazy, so I'll just go with round value.
Napoli, Mike (1B,C) TEX - 440 Points - 10th Round Rasmus, Colby (OF) STL - 345 Points - 20th Round Weeks, Rickie (2B) MIL - 436 Points - 21st Round Lincecum, Tim (SP) SF - 654 Points - 18th Round Strasburg, Stephen (SP) WAS - 86 Points - 20th Round Zimmermann, Jordan (SP) WAS - 426 Points - 21st Round Leake, Mike (SP) CIN - 421 Points - FA Santos, Sergio (RP) TOR - 312 Points - FA
Either Rasmus or Strasburg will fall into the 18th round due to doubling up, but I would stick with these. Take a chance on Rasmus given that your hitters need some depth.
