In that deep of a keeper league I would keep Grandal over Colvin. He is still really young, and you don't get drafted in the top 5 of the major league draft as a catcher for defense! Aside from that can you keep players off your minor league roster? I would keep Wil Myers! Jorge Soler deserves a look too. I'm not sure how your prospect list works, if they are counted as part of your 16 keepers than you keep Wil Myers with no question!

If your prospect squad counts towards your keepers:

Wil Myers
Carlos Quentin

If your prospect farm is irrelevant towards your 16 keepers:

Carlos Quentin
Chad Billingsley, I guess? 16 keepers doesn't lend to a lot of high end pitching talent in the draft.
(however, I think I may like Gregerson more in a Holds league. Will get you a few spot saves too with high K/9 and low ERA. If I had a league that counted holds I would draft him ahead of anybody else on that list)

Prospeects are kept seperatly and we can keep them down until 130atbats/50ip at the MLB level then we have 72 hours to call them up or lose them, hence why I had Middlebrooks and Grandal up last year

I would keep Quentin and Jones. I wouldn't mind Billingsly, but his elbow is a ticking time bomb.

Thanks for your help!

I like Quentin as does everyone else. I also like Cobb, I believe he may start to show as a talented SP.

I agree with Cobb. You have a nice line-up with some nice hitting prospects. But not much depth at P. I would roll the dice with him, and possibly dangle Grandal to see what offers you get. Just my thoughts, hope it helped
