Better Fantasy Pick - Freeman - Smoak - Moreland ?

ballerskrip · Mar 23, 2011

Well I drafted my team last night and took Mitch Moreland and Freddie Freeman in the last couple of rounds.

Justin Smoak is available and I am now contemplating dropping one of them for Smoak.

Any thoughts?

Drop Moreland for Smoak.

I agree with the others. Basically, Freeman-Smoak-Moreland, in that order. Just my opinion.

I think Moreland and Smoak will be decent, I say drop Freddie.

Moreland had 9 HRs in only 145 ABs, so def. 30 HR potential. Not to mention his .364 OBP....Smoak I like for his power and being a switch hitter, I think he will surprise some this season.

Freddie has the potential to be great, but kind of unknown how he will perform over a full MLB season.

I would keep the 2 you drafted. Smoak has power potential, but he wont compete with Freeman and Moreland in BA. Freeman should have plenty of RBI opportunities but is not considered a HR hitter. Moreland should continue on last year's success. Potent offense equals lots of runs and RBIs.

That's weird. Conventional fantasy outlook has Moreland number one and I think he's the safest of the three by a looooong shot. Bench Moreland against lefties and call it a day.

Only problem: Chris Davis is being Chris Davis, again.

S.S.D.D.

Chris Davis is notorious for raking in Spring Training and underwhelming during the regular season. I think the Rangers are finally done with hoping that Davis finally lives up to his expectations, only to be let down again.

As of right now Moreland is still stated to be the Rangers starting 1B.

Smoak is a huge gamble he stinks but he has/had huge potential. He has done nothing to show he can do it at the MLB level. If you base your choice on potential I'd say Freeman Smoak Moreland. Moreland hits in a stacked offence but if he stuggles he will be quickly replaced. Personally I would take Freeman then Moreland and then anyone and then Smoak. Freeman is by far the best choice.

Freeman also has the least amount of MLB experience.

Smoak showed his potential after his final call up from AAA at the end of last season (.340/3/9 in 50 AB)
