What would you pay for Carlos Gonzalez?

[Ryno84MVP]

We have talked about Tulo and Kemp, so let's try Cargo.

12-team NL-only 5x5 league, what would you pay for Carlos Gonzalez?

[joncarlos]

Probably high 20s, assuming redraft with no keepers/inflation.

[Hobbesmonkey]

I wouldn't go over $20 for him. Not worth the daily headache and/or anxiety of wondering if this is the day he gets hurt.

[Gregg]

I would expect him to go for $30-32 in our NL only 5x5 keeper league. But not by me.

Isn't he kind of Tulo light?

He has never played in more than 145 games. Last year only 70. With his knee surgery will he even try to steal, much less get 20?

[The Dane]

Well, the home park keeps him forever on my radar. I play in deep NL-only and every Colorado hitter will be drafted, and they should be. CarGo will doubtless go for considerably more than I will pay for him, which is probably in the $18-$22 range. I target Tulo before him because it's a lot easier to find production from CarGo's OF spot than Tulo's SS spot.

We just drafted in our NL Only 12-team 5x5 (OBP) league, $280 for 25-man rosters, with typically heavy inflation and he went for $40. By comparison, Tulo went $46, McCutchen went $57, Heyward went $35, Upton went $46, Braun went $45, Posey went $40.

What did Kemp go for?

I kept him at $35.
