Paul Goldschmidt or Justin Smoak? WHIR

Postby NikeTxGuy » Thu May 31, 2012 3:10 am

Who should I pick up (basically who will have a more productive rest of season) keep in mind this is a keeper league. (I would be dropping Matt Adams [1B - STL]).

Also keep in mind that whoever gets the majority vote, will be a backup 1B to Freddy Freeman who is my everyday 1B.

This is how my team looks so far:

10 Team ROTO "KEEPER" League R - HR - RBI - TB - SB - AVG - W - SV - BB - HLD - ERA - K/9.

MY Team (pending that a trade goes through).

C - A.J. Pierzynski
1B - Freddie Freeman
2B - Kelly Johnson
3B - Chase Headley
SS - Derek Jeter
OF - Carlos Gonzalez
OF - Mike Trout
OF - Giancarlo Stanton
UT - Carlos Quentin
UT - Josh Reddick
BN - Dexter Fowler
BN - Matt Adams
BN - Anthony Rizzo
DL - Austin Jackson
DL - Carl Crawford

SP - Clayton Kershaw
SP - Stephen Strasburg
SP - Ryan Vogelsong
SP - Jaime Garcia
SP - Francisco Liriano
SP - Trevor Bauer

RP - Jonathan Papelbon
RP - Sergio Romo
RP - Jonny Venters
RP - Brian Fuentes
DL - David Robertson

We kept 5 going into this season... At the very least, worst-case scenario, it will be 5 again going into next year's redraft. So if that's so the case, my 5 keepers (if the pending trade goes down) would be: Carlos Gonzalez, Mike Trout, Giancarlo Stanton, Clayton Kershaw and then a tossup between Strasburg and Freeman, maybe giving a SLIGHT edge to Strasburg. MAYBE.

I'd go with Goldy, however, I think you might need one more SP for depth Bauer if he doesn't get the call your depth is kinda shaky.
The best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be!
