@Eddy: Thanks! I appreciate the heads up. I see I had Dunn in the OF everywhere. Please feel free to point out any mistakes.

That link you posted (http://bosoxgifs.imgur.com/beltre_head_rubs/2) of Beltre’s head rubbing phobia is hilarious. I have a new found respect for Victor Martinez after watching those. Pedroia too.

@Grey: In a 5X5 14 team dynasty league, would you go with I got offered Chacin for EY2. Do you think I should accept the deal? I have phillips for 2B and an IF slot, but I have better options for that too. I don't really need Chacin, but do you like him more than EY2?

@VinWins: Thanks again for the breakdowns. One small detail. If I'm not mistaken, Dunn will only be 1B eligible for 2011. He's listed under OF in the position breakdown sheet.

@GopherDay: I like the hitting, but Jennings might not break camp with the Rays. The pitching looks fine too. @Reddish Orange: I'd go Prince, Hanley and CarGo.

By: GopherDay

GopherDay — Mon, 10 Jan 2011 01:50:19 +0000

@Reddish Orange: You could do Hanley and A-Gone for round 1 and 2, and CarGo for round 7.

By: Reddish Orange

Reddish Orange — Mon, 10 Jan 2011 01:39:04 +0000

Forgot I have Prince Fielder in round 1 too

Hey since it’s January I need to start thinking about keepers. I’m in a 12 team league that has the following roster spots:
C/1B/2B/3B/SS/MI/CI/OF/OF/OF/OF/UTIL/SP/SP/RP/RP/P/P/P/P

The rules are we keep 3 guys 2 rounds higher than their draft spot. I’m considering keeping Hanley, Adrian Gonzalez, and Cano @ round 1 (if I keep multiple, I give up the subsequent rounds), Carlos Gonzalez in the 7th, or Jered Weaver in the 9th. I also have Gio Gonzalez in the 19th round.

What are your thoughts? I’m leaning towards 1 first round guy, CarGo, and Weaver.

@Jacob: You and me both! I mean, yeah!

Thanks everyone. I’m looking forward to rankings starting tomorrow!

@Jacob: You can "sign up" for free at mock draft central and jump into any 3 of their mocks per week for free (including, but not limited to, razz mocks run there).

By: GopherDay

GopherDay — Sun, 09 Jan 2011 22:36:26 +0000

@Jacob: The mock draft central ones are free, but you can't create custom ones. Eddy is the only one who pays to create them. We are having mocks every Wednesday/Thursday. So check the comments for posts about them.

By: Grey

Grey — Sun, 09 Jan 2011 22:21:49 +0000

@simply fred: No problem. @Jacob: I don't think the people that are participating in the Razzball mocks are paying.

By: Jacob

Jacob — Sun, 09 Jan 2011 21:40:39 +0000

Does anyone know where I can find some mocks to do without paying moolah?

By: simply fred

simply fred — Sun, 09 Jan 2011 20:16:27 +0000

@Grey:Thanks! Lots of time to finalize, but that gets Bautista off my board. Morneau penciled in as tentative.

By: Grey

Grey — Sun, 09 Jan 2011 19:53:33 +0000

@simply fred: Don't know who was available when you took him. I'd prefer Morneau of those names.

By: Grey

Grey — Sun, 09 Jan 2011 19:52:42 +0000

@Terrence Mann: Oops, good catch. @scrotum: I meant the move is to lose Wainwright and Werth like you said.

@Eddy: just took the last spot in the mock. thanks for setting it up.

@Terrence Mann: Nice to know someone else feels my pain!

By: Terrence Mann

Terrence Mann — Sun, 09 Jan 2011 18:42:26 +0000

@simply fred: I don't like any of the options at that point, either. I took Posey at 4.3 and know that's a reach. The next two picks were Bautista and Greinke. Blech.

By: Terrence Mann

Terrence Mann — Sun, 09 Jan 2011 18:35:18 +0000

@Grey: You're keeping Werth over Hamilton? Wow.

By: simply fred

simply fred — Sun, 09 Jan 2011 17:41:46 +0000

@Grey: Am looking at what's available in lieu of where Bautista is going. Morneau? Morales? Other?

Hey, saw the post by Diamondoug suggesting an RCL league made up of last year’s winners (may need two). Love the idea! I, sadly, don’t qualify but would be even extra incentive to strive for the top of the top next the following year!

By: Grey

Grey — Sun, 09 Jan 2011 16:09:41 +0000

@scrotum: Yeah, the move is to lose Wainwright and Hamilton.
