AL only 5x5 keeper/extension thoughts

[burkkake]

Hi all...working on keepers

5 from this list in AL only 5x5 plus extensions $5 per extra year

Sano $1 (extend 3 years at $11 or go 4 years at $16)
Rosario $5 (extend 2 year to $10 or 3 years to $15)
Teixeira $12

then options are:

Gregorius $5
A Rod $11 (I expect that in my league I will be allowed to put Sano in the OF)
Karns $3
Soto $1


My current plan is Sano (4) $16, Rosario (2) $10, Teixeira $12, Gregorius $5, ARod $11. I think I have the 5 right but I'm not sure. Am I extending Sano too far? Is extending Rosario a mistake?

I feel like having the two man core of Sano and Rosario for two years is a good idea. If you disagree then I'd just keep Rosario 1 year at $5.

Thanks in advance

I'd be leery of extending Rosario at all...Kepler is waiting in the wings and needs a spot, soon. I expect Sano to learn to play the OF acceptably, so I'd have no problem extending him to 16, still plenty of value left at that price. I'd probably keep Karnes and A-Rod from the 2nd group...just a caveat, I'm pretty aggressive when it comes to extensions.

Karns, A-Rod, no Rosario extension, extend Sano to 11, keep Teix as #5

Another vote for the above.

Thank you gentlemen. You're always wise in your recommendations.

This is exactly what I'd favor.
