    Default Help me pick my 3 keepers please (REP)

    Hey guys, I need help with my 3 keepers in a ROTO league (they are one year keepers that will be released at the end of this season).

    My cats are: R, HR, RBI, SB, K, AVG...W, L, SV, K, ERA ,WHIP

    I must pick 3 of these:

    X- Ryan Zimmerman
    Shin-Soo Choo
    Starling Marte
    Billy Hamilton
    Kyle Seager

    X- David Price
    R.A. Dickey
    X- Greg Holland
    Jason Grilli

    I put an X- next to the 3 I believe to be my best players, but I would love your input as well since I'm not as familiar with the MLB as I am with the NHL. The one that was bugging me the most was Marte... Don't know too much on him but he looks promising.

    Thanks again!

    Marte
    Price
    Zimmerman
    Holland is great, but with only 3 keepers, hate keeping a closer
    Choo and Zimmerman close, i just would rather have the 3B

    Another vote for Marte, Price and Zimmerman. Choo is interesting but I don't think he will out produce Marte. Price and Zimmer are no doubters on your roster IMO.

    10 teams, but closers are hard to gage each year. Some years they are drafted early, and other years they fall in the later rounds. That's why I like to play it safe by keeping a reliable closer but seems like Marte is a must keep from these past few posts...

    I'd go Price, Choo, Zimmerman.

    Zimmerman locks up 3B, Price had a 2.87 2nd half ERA last season and is always one of the best fantasy pitchers IMO.

    Choo and Marte are close, but I don't think Marte will repeat his .280 average, and I also think that as far as re-draftability, you will not be able to get Choo again, but would be able to grab Marte. Don't think you can go wrong with either one.

    Definitely don't keep a closer.

    10 team league you have to go Zimmerman, Price, Marte, although there could be debate to keep Choo.

    Choo should be much better than marte this season. That's not close for me...

    1. Choo
    2. Zimmerman
    3. Price
    4. Holland
    5. Marte

    The last 3 are a toss up depending on personal roster preference to
    Points Only Dynasty League - count top 6 F, top 4 D and top G

    F: Crosby, Malkin, Ovechkin, Bergeron, R Smith, W Karlsson, Atkinson, Zuccarello, Radulov, Lee, Steel, Milano, Farabee, Batherson, Sprong, Heponiemi

    D: Burns, Letang, Carlson ,Yandle, Green, M Matheson, Niko

    G: Markstrom, Rinne, Samsonov

    Zimmerman, Choo, Price...fills your hitting cat's without a drop off in AVG or K's. The other guys all have a hole somewhere, these three have the least amount of holes...Hamilton is very intriguing as he can win you the SB category every week, so it might be dependant on if you have other keeps and who they are...

    You can always find closers not he waiver wire during the season, but finding a David Price is unlikely...he is a must keep...
