Minor league draft

Scoresheet AL-only keeper league drafting the final stages.  I have 3 picks remaining.  I've built a pretty solid team with a good group of young players.  

Halladay
Bedard
Ch. Young
Cl. Lee
Haren
Kazmir
*Felix Hernandez
*Br. McCarthy
*Niemann
*McGowan

Hitters:

Morneau
Ortiz
Renteria
Blalock
Vern. Wells
Suzuki
Rios
*Del. Young

Question:  I'm considering the following players and am torn on who to draft:

*Pedroia
*Fr. Lirano
*Diamond
*Danks
*An. Sanchez
*Lester
*Br. Wood

I can protect 15 players and unlimited rookies.  Less than 25 IP or 70 AB's constitute rookie status at season's end.  I'm afraid Pedroia and possibly Liriano might lose their rookie eligibility

Aall thoughts appreciated.

Thanks,

Bob

You can flip a coin for the other slots.

I'm probably too late to help....
But I agree with Goodfella.

You have to take Wood if you can get him.

Does this league allow trades?

If do, I wouldn't be worried about too much pitching, and I'd grab Diamond.  You can always find a second baseman.

Hmm
To me, it looks like you need a young 2B, so I'd nab Pedroia.

Purely as fantasy prospects I like Liriano and Diamond better (maybe Lester too) but SP isn't exactly a need area for you.

Go ahead and shoot your mouth off, like it might kill the silence.

I'm a Danks fan
go for some saves, and good Jays content on there, McGowan is gonna be a stud starter for you so I agree with Siegrist
Rios is the next Juan Gonzales, thats right, I said it.
