Who Are A Few Good Late-Late-Last Round Picks? (1 Viewer)

[Encyclopedia Brown]

Here's a few:

Ryan "The Riot" SS, Chicago Cubs. I think he could be okay as a UTIL type.

Jayson Nix 2B, Colorado. He might be a worthy play during Rockies home games.

Josh Willingham.

 

[Eephus]

I'm not sold on Nix. It looks like he'll have the job out of ST but I don't know if he's good enough to hold it all season. He's neither a very young or very good prospect. He repeated seasons at all levels of the minors and didn't put up impressive numbers even in Colorado Springs.

Theriot and Willingham are OK value picks but may not make it to the end of drafts.

I'll throw Erick Aybar and Chris Denorfia into the mix. Neither was drafted in a 36 round dynasty draft I just finished.

 

[JoeSteeler]

How about Conor Jackson? I recently drafted him in the 25th round and read today he may bat cleanup.

Who will supplant him? Not Jeff Baker and certainly not Giles.

Well I'm short 2 players. Should I scoop them up?

I like Nate McLouth. Doesn't officially have the Pirates starting CF job yet, but he's having a great spring and I'd be surprised if he didn't get it.

13 HR, 22 SB and 62 R in 329 AB last year look pretty nice if you project them over a full season.

The Rockies have a couple of dead spots in their lineup in Tavares and Torrealba. Either Baker or Stewart would be more productive if they can be tolerable defensively.Even if Nix holds the job, he's a bottom of the order hitter without power or great speed. Just playing half his games at Coors doesn't make him rosterable.

McLouth is a good one.

Nah, unless you like Aybar better than Bartlett

 

[skazooz]

Depending on the size of your league Franklin Gutierrez may be kicking around, he should easily put up 20/20 with a good amount of runs scored in that Cleveland lineup.
