2014 Dynasty Keepers

[johnnya24]

Is that Bartolo Colon? Holy crap, is he still playing? He was done when I played fantasy baseball 10 years ago!

40 years old ...

190IP 18-6 117K 2.65 ERA 1.166 WHIP

... nothing fishy there

Yea, as long as the deals are reasonable, I'd make one of them, because Choo and Reyes are significant upgrades over your 4th best keeper.

That seems to be the consensus. Why no love for ASoriano? 30 HR and 20 SB seems like a useful player, even if the AVG sucks.

I'd say 25 and 10 is more likely. But yea Soriano isn't a terrible choice, but I'd much rather have Reyes or Choo.

That power was put up with over half of his season being with the Cubs. How he'd do in a full season as a RH batter at Yankee Stadium is a good question. And at his age, who knows if those SB are repeatable?

The asking price was pick 116 for Choo/159. 43 picks seems like more than the difference between Choo and Soriano/Cruz.

Does 116 for Choo/141 seem fair?
ETA: this is currently on the table.

109 for Choo/127?
ETA: Probably not enough of an upgrade for him.

Cubs: 17 HR in 326 AB
Yankees: 17 HR in 219 AB

He went nuts as a Yankee but I think he's a lock for 30 HR. Agreed on the SB, so we have a .250 30 HR hitter. I see why you guys think Reyes or Choo are upgrades! I'm also talking to the AGon owner.

[virgonomic]

My 109 for Reyes/133 is a done deal. Thanks for your input!

[virgonomic]

Now considering: 116 for Choo/141. 116 projects to Beltran and 141 to Cruz, for comparison.

So the trade boils down to which side:

Beltran/CSantana
or
Choo/Cruz

Santana is working out at 3B which is intriguing. Which side do you prefer?

[virgonomic]

BUMP. CGomez' owner is looking to move him. I'd look to do a similar swap for him. Are Choo or Gomez preferable to Molina or Santana (1C league).
