    What do you think Pujols will go for at Auction in 2011 under these conditions:

    NL only, 11-owners, 5X5 ,$300 salary cap on auction day.

    Several Cardinal fans in the league.
    Several owners willing to spend big bucks for one player.
    Can only be kept for 3 years (2011,2012,2013) and then will be a free agent.
    Went for $41 3 years ago.

    I know you don't have ALL the facts. I don't have all the facts yet. Keepers have not yet been announced. But given these parameters, what are your guesses?

    How many keepers do teams usually protect?
    Find that level above your head and help you reach it.

      7 is the most you can keep (most do), but you can keep anywhere from 0 to 7.

        With expected inflation I would say $51.

          I would top out at $53.

            depending on where in the auction $55+, I'd take 2-1 that he goes $60

              $41 is an absolute thunderf*ck of a steal in an only league with a $300 cap.
              Yeah, I guess that was the year everyone was scared he was going to have Tommy John surgery. I'd say $55+ this year.

                  uh...1 million dollars > $300 salary cap and you need 23 other players.

                          You lose him.
                          So it's kind of a gamble for what might be a 1 year situation.

                              I think he is going to go for $60 in our 12 team $260 budget NL only keeper league.

                              You have $300 and one less player. I am calling $65 in your league.
