Harper! If I wasnt biased. But with his potential he could be in the 40 40 club in a few years and carry any team. But for the next 2 years I would go with Fielder and Posey. Posey is pretty much in a class of his own at C and Fielder's Fielder, a potential first round pick and as consistent as they come.

I was leaning toward Fielder and Posey because I feel its the safe bet. But I dont want to miss out on Harper and what could be. I was thinking I could target Harper early in the draft and hopefully get him back. I dont think I could get Posey back if I let him go.
As long as Fielder and Miggy are in the same lineup together, he's a keeper. I'd go with Posey as well. I'm sure Harper is going to impress, but Posey has proven himself at a traditionally weak position. I don't know what your league format is, but catcher seems a little deeper than in past years. If you're in an 8-10 team league, I think the argument for Harper is a little stronger. Still I think I'd go with Posey even then.
How many Catchers does your league start? If it is 2 per team Posey is your guy, he might be anyway. In 1 catcher leagues, everybody gets a good 1 this year
Hamilton has too many red flags Posey is great, but catchers take a beating and are rarely consistent. I am a Giant's fan, and while I expect him to play well, I don't think there is any way he repeats those numbers from last year.
As others have pointed out, though, if you are in a 2-catcher league, it might be worth the risk to take Posey over Fielder.
By the way, does Medlen count as a RP in your league? If so, I would take him over Papelbon in a heartbeat.
