2013 Keeper Auction League Question

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version

Alright I can keep 5 players in my 12 team auction keeper league. All the players 2012 values will be averaged with their ESPN values in the preseason for 2013 and we have $260 predraft and pre keepers. ESPN has not released their values yet so I will just give you the value of these players from 2012.  
I am keeping Mike Trout for $5, Felix Hernandez for $34, Gio Gonzalez for $15, those are my 3 given players. 
For my 4th and 5th keeper it gets more complicated, I have Starlin Castro at $14, Ben Zobrist at $27, Yoenis Cespedes at $2, and Brandon Morrow at $9. What two should I keep?

	I like Cespedes for sure. What a great bargain OF with Trout. Morrow has a good price but With 2 top SP's already kept; Castro is my choice. Cespedes & Castro.

	Starlin and Cespesdes for sure. Keep an eye on Gio, could be dealt a 50 game suspension. Not sure if that would sway you on switching to Morrow who could, if healthy, have a solid year as a #3 or 4 in that rotation

	Negan: After Trout's price of $5 is averaged with his ESPN 2013 value he'll end up being around $20, but seriously I'll take that everyday for Trout. I was leaning towards Castro for sure and Cespedes I was thinking was the best value but I want to be talked out of it. Ha ha Anyone think someone would trade Bryce Harper for Gio Gonzalez straight up? Gio $15 and Harper $5 before they are averaged. I'm thinking about trying that and then keeping Trout, Harper, Felix, Castro and Morrow

	Ya unfortunately that PED thing probably screwed any slight chance I may have had at that.

	You wouldn't have gotten Harper for Gio even before the PED's possibility.
