Speaking of Fantasy baseball... gurus: help me choose my last keeper!
12 team mixed league... Auction style.. Points and head to head league. We get to keep up to 4 players.
I am keeping for sure: Victor Martinez - $6 Carlos Beltran - $25 Aramis Ramirez - $6 (80% sure I want to keep him too) The rest: Oliver Perez - $11 Jim Edmonds - $7 Freddy Garcia - $9 David Wells - $12 Josh Beckett - $12 Carl Crawford - $11 (steals are not important, since it is all points based.. he's still pretty good, though) I really like Oliver Perez, I think he has the ability to be a big strikeout pitcher. Jim Edmonds did really well for me last year (was a top 15 OF in my league), but he is old and injury prone. What would you gurus do? |

I'd keep Ramirez. You have him at a really good price, and (young) pitchers like Perez are just too unpredictable.

Re: Speaking of Fantasy baseball... gurus: help me choose my last keep
oliver perez if your definitely keeping the other 3. to me edmonds at 7 seems like a better value than beltran at 25 but i usually play draft leagues so i dont know how important the saraly numbers are. Beltran is moving to a tough hitters park after playing in a great hitters park last year. Beckett is probably the only other one worth considering.

Re: Speaking of Fantasy baseball... gurus: help me choose my last keep
Thanks for the replies.
Sammy: To put it into perspective, Pujols, A-Rod, Vladimir usually go for $50-60 on draft day. A handful of top OF's will go for $30-45, then most other OF's will go for the $10-$20 range. This is why Beltran is a definate in my league, since he is one of the premier hitters (he was #2 overall points last year to Pujols). I'm glad you guys are agreeing with me on Perez. I wanted to make sure I wasn't just being biased since I was big on him last year. |

Re: Speaking of Fantasy baseball... gurus: help me choose my last keeper!
I'd need a refresher on your points system before I definitively say oliver perez. I am extremely tempted to keep crawford at that price. Also, is there a yearly increase on keepers?

Certainly nowhere near $18 worth, especially since steals are not valuable. I suppose you can consider him an injury risk, but last year he missed 25 games, the most in 4 years. I think I'm dropping either Victor or Beltran here. Probably Vic, as position scarcity is overrated. |

Ramirez is a definite. After that, I agree that Oliver Perez is the best value. If you keep Edmonds, he will play no more than 120 games.
