I play in a 14 team, head-to-head league in which we keep any 6 players each year.
My first 4 picks are pretty much no-brainers:
Miguel Cabrera
Joey Votto
Andrew McCutchen
Stephen Strasburg
My final 2 picks will come from a shortlist of 4:
Jason Heyward
Matt Cain
Aroldis Chapman
RA Dickey
At the moment I'm leaning toward Heyward and either Cain or Chapman. I'd expect at least a repeat of last season from Heyward, with some possible improvement. Cain is always a solid performer and Chapman will either be a slightly risky starter (although league settings include K's per 9 innings which will still be solid) or a lights out closer. Dickey is the one I'd most expect to see a dropoff from.
Thanks for any help.

I'd go Heyward and Cain for the reasons you stated.
RA Dickey is the risky one out these 4. No way he repeats last years numbers. He may still be a good pitcher but wont give you last year.
Chapman is a great talent but I would be worried about the transition to a starting pitcher, Chapman would have to do a lot to out pitch Cain, seems unlikely that he will.

It's a slam dunk for Heyward and Cain here without a doubt.
