@AMACK: Catcher's not important in a one catcher league. I'd keep A-Gonz.

I am able to keep three keepers for this upcoming draft.
I Was going to keep Johan Santana, Kevin Youkilis and need to pickone more from. Adrian Gonzolez, Mariano Rivera, Magglio Ordonez, Chris Davis or Russell Martin. It’s a one catcher league, so is the catcher as important as everyone has been saying.

@Catcher-love: In 2 catcher leagues, catchers are a bit more necessary. I agree with you there. But you said it yourself, you lost V-Mart and still won the league. And McCann was good, but he was still only equal to Melvin Mora-type numbers. You could've probably won with Doumit and Hernandez. Or Hernandez and Hot Catcher Pickup of the Week.

I’m in a league that starts 2 catchers. I had McCann and Victor, and despite Victor sucking, I picked up Ramon Hernandez, and he saved me. In a 2-catcher league, the dropoff is so large between the good and the bad catchers, I think you want good ones. By the way, I won my 12-team league last year.

Yeah they’re def’ly going to try and save themselves money and years they can hold onto weiters cheap by not bringing him up right away…. ex: Longoria

This Wieters talk will be a lot more productive during/after spring training. If he tears the cover off the ball from day one, it could make management consider keeping him around. But I think that’s what it would take

Dudes, Weiters > Salty. Much greater. (there’s a dick joke there somewhere)

For some reason i think weiters is gonna pan out a little better. He’s got a much clearer path than Salty. And most people can spell his name.

The same people who draft Weiters early drafted Saltalamacchiavich in the 10th or so round last year. It got them a big pile of bupkus.
