Obviously, I have a pretty good idea about keepers 1-4 but 5 + 6 get a bit more difficult. Having said that, I would appreciate your input regarding whom to keep.
Thanks in advance,

First off, you gotta keep Harang! Kidding.
Prince, Utley, BJ Upton, CC, Quentin and Rios. In that order. Doesn't seem that tricky after the top four. What are you thinking that makes it tricky? Are you thinking you shouldn't keep Rios? And perhaps lean on a rookie like Stewart or Gio? Or maybe Dice-K or Shields? Well, I'd put them at Shields and Dice-K, but you should be able to find starters in the draft where a player (Rios) that is capable of 20/30/.280 is a lot harder to find. Also, keeping pitchers usually isn't the way to go and I feel like without the constraints of dollar values or rounds, you really should weigh the hitters more heavily. Hope this helps.
