    Default Who would you pick?

    I own the 1st pick in an 8-team, AL ONLY, 5X5 Rotisserie, Keeper League

    Without worrying about budget because I'm only concerned about the 1st round selection, my question is 'Who would you pick?'

    My options are as follows:

    Robinson Cano - 2B NYY
    Adrian Gonzalez - 1B BOS
    Neftali Feliz - RP TEX
    Justin Morneau - 1B MIN
    Jacoby Ellsbury - OF BOS

    Thanks for all the help in advance!

    I'd probably go Cano here because of positional scarcity.

    Cano or gonzalez. It depends on what you prefer. Do you have a 1B already? I'd lean towards Cano because he's really all by himself at 2B in the AL.
    I would avoid Morneau and Ellsbury because they are injury concerns, and Feliz is a closer.


    Is this the inaugural draft?

    Each team can protect 4 players plus a prospect. I can select 4 of the following players:

    Shin-soo Choo
    Aaron Hill
    Carlos Quentin
    Elvis Andrus
    Carlos Santana
    Kurt Suzuki
    Austin Jackson

    Clay Buchholz
    John Danks
    Gio Gonzalez
    CJ Wilson

    I'm leaning towards Santana, Andrus, Choo and Hill (Chris Sale is my prospect) then selecting Cano 1st overall. Am I making the right choices owning the 1st pick in a snake draft when I won't get to pick again until the 17th pick?

    Thanks!

    Gonzalez, you need the power.

    I'd go Santana/Buchholz/Choo/Andrus. I think you have to take Cano. IMO, Hill's not a keeper, though he does have some bounce-back potential and would make a nice mid-round pick.

    Hi there, I'd also go with Santana/Buchholz/Choo/Andrus. But I would pick Adrian Gonzalez instead of Robinson Cano. Gonzalez is going to post even better numbers with the Red Sox. He was hitting in a pitchers park at Petco and now he's hitting in Fenway Park, a very friendly ball park for hitters.

    Do you see A-Gon as a long term keeper over Cano? Remember Adrian Gonzalez isn't yet signed to a long-term deal and my league is an AL-Only.
