Jason, would you still pick Abreu at #4?

Jason, do you still like Abreu as much as you did during this mock draft? I have the 8th pick, 7th pick owner says he'll take Gomez. I was set to either trade down or take Bautista there because I feel there's some very undervalued players at 1B and DH like VMart and Carter. This league doesnt use CI or MI so if I take Abreu I'd possibly have to pass one on of those, or end up with 2 1B/DH types for Util's.

yes, I would. Lineup protection comes from who is in front of you more than it does from behind. In his case, he has both. He has table setters Eaton & Melky in front of him and LaRoche behind him. I had him down as a $33 player in Tout & said $35, but didn't go to $37 to win him.

thanks, you've given me something to think about.
