Draft Advice Sought

by soxn08 on Feb 22, 2008 4:46 PM EST

Keeper League Draft coming up and I have the third pick for all new eligible players (07 draftees, foreign players)...

I know Price will be selected before my pick, so that leaves Moustakas, Wieters, Heyward, LaPorta as my choices (I think)...who do you guys think will have the best long-term fantasy value (regardless of league scoring)?

As always, thanks for any input.

LaPorta is a safe bet

I remember a study where 1st round, college 1st baseman were the most reliable draft picks. If you're looking for guaranteed offensive output, he is as safe a bet as possible.

Wieters

If he's not picked #2 ahead of you, he is a great choice.

Wieters

he's going to be a stud offensive catcher for the next 10 years - what's not to like?

Wieters...if not then Moose (and pray he stays at SS or 2B!)

If Wieters is still available, you have to take him. Then it's a tossup. I like Moustakas' power alot, but LaPorta will move faster and Heyward looks like more like a 5-tool monster.
