Fantasy Baseball Nerd Thread
Posted: Mon Feb 21, 2011 10:17 am
If there are any other fantasy baseball nerds here, I thought I would post this question. I play in a league that allows 4 keepers a year, and we have to decide on keepers before the draft in mid-March. We play in a 12-team, 5 x 5 category roto league with an auction draft. Each keeper retains his draft value (or $1 if he was a free agent) until after his third year as a keeper. Then his salary goes up $5/year. We also have offseason trades for the first time, but so far no one has made an offer for any of my guys.
Here are the guys I would consider keeping. Pick 4.
Mike Stanton, OF, $1
Colby Rasmus, OF, $3
Clay Buchholz, SP, $1
Neftali Feliz, RP, $3
Matt Wieters, C, $1
Pablo Sandoval, 1B/3B, $4
Brian Matusz, SP, $1
Jonathan Sanchez, SP, $4
Right now I know I want to keep Stanton and Rasmus. After that I'm leaning towards Buchholz and Feliz. Wieters is intriguing, and a catcher that can his is very valuable in our league since we have to start 2 catchers. Sandoval lost 15 lbs in the offseason but he still seems like a real risky pick. I like Sanchez's strikeouts but he's not always consistent. I just wish Buchholz threw more strikeouts. Neftali would be more valuable to me if he becomes a starter.
Which 4 would you keep?
