quick keeper extension question

[Pauly]

NL only 5x5 - how many years would you extend a $1 Addison Russell ($5 per year) if you had JP Crawford waiting in the wings on your minor league roster?

Also how long would you extend a $5 Maikel Franco?

[Sour Masher]

JP Crawford is a fine all around player, but I don't believe he will ever be the offensive talent Russell is going to blossom into. I'd extend Russell to $11. I'm less of a believer in Franco, and would either ride him out of extend him to $10 at most.

Yes, you never know what a player is going to do in the 1st couple of years, and in Russell, you have a real life 25/100 candidate at SS, with Craford, you simply don't know. I'd extend Russell for 2 years. I'd also extend Franco for 2 years.

Yeah, two years each sounds about right
