NFT: Fantasy Baseball - Keepers

Tuckoff09 : 3/27/2017 10:18 pm

Hey guys, my fantasy draft is this Friday and I need some advice. Each team gets to keep up to 4 players with the first 2 being free (don't lose a draft pick). If you decide to keep 2 additional players, you lose a pick from the round they were drafted last year. Free agent pickups cost a 10th round pick. I'm most definitely keeping Betts and Goldschmidt since they wont cost me a draft pick and leaning towards G. Sanchez and T. Story. Here's the players on my team worth considering. Let me know what you think. Thanks!

G. Sanchez (FA, 10th)
P. Goldschmidt (1st)
J. Kipnis (9th)
E. Longoria (14th)
X. Bogaerts (6th)
T. Story (FA, 10th)
A. Rizzzo (3rd)
M. Betts (2nd)
G. Springer (5th)
J. Bautista (FA, 10th)
M. Carpenter (4th)

A. Sanchez (FA, 10th)
R. Porcello (FA, 10th)
J. Happ (FA, 10th)
A. Wainwright (FA, 10th)
Z. Britton (13th)
A. Colome (FA, 10th)

What is your scoring system?

I know Story went off but I don't see a repeat like that. If you are keeping Sanchez for a 10th I might keep Rizzo. 1B is surprising weak this year. And a 3rd round pick after keepers is really nothing. Although a 10th for Story is really good too.

Head to head categories, BA, OPB, Runs, 2B, Hr, RBI, SB, ERA, WHIP, QS, Wins, SV. Was thinking Rizzo or Bogaerts but just thought the value on Story was too good. It's a 12 team league btw.

So, lets say you keep Story.

What happens next year in terms of what you would have to give up?

I'd keep Sanchez

Mike from SI : 3/27/2017 11:49 pm : link

and either Story or Joey Bats. But I'm loath to give up early picks. The delta between Bautista and whoever you're gonna get in the 14th round is probably higher than the delta between Rizzo and whoever you get in the 3rd rounds. But it's a close call.

I can't read; I see that Bautista is worth a 10th rounder. Rizzo is probably the "safer" play but I loath to give up early draft picks.

Rizzo and Bogerts

I'd rather give up a 3rd and then Bogerts value at 6 is awesome.

Draft tonight 12 team pick 8. rank these players
Donaldson
Harper
Goldsmidt

Leaning toward Machado but he might be gone
