My Fantasy team is dead and buried, so I've spent the last few weeks trading my high-priced talent for cheap young keepers. (I'm in a 5x5, keeper league). Now I need some advice: Who's the better keeper for each position: 2nd base: Josh Barfield or Rickie Weeks? 3rd base: Garrett Atkins or Eric Chavez? OF: Rocco Baldelli or Andre Ethier? - Joe

B.F.: I'd go Weeks for sure. He's one of my favorites and his upside is enormous. However, Barfield is a nice keeper so you'll probably be able to trade him for something else. Atkins will eventually be pushed by top prospect Ian Stewart, so Chavez has more long-term job security. However, Atkins is clearly having the better season so it's difficult to justify keeping the struggling Chavez over him. I'd look to package Atkins and Barfield for one top-notch keeper. As far as the outfield goes, I'd take Ethier, but it's very close. I'm not a huge fan of either guy.

Have a chance to win the categories of homers, runs, and RBI in a 12-team mixed-Rotisserie league using standard stats. I've led almost all year long in these categories, but due to some recent injuries (Casey Blake and Rocco Baldelli not playing every day) I've fallen into almost a dead heat in these categories. I need some help and I'm considering picking up either David Dellucci or Craig Monroe. Which one should I go for? With Rowand out, Dellucci is likely to start everyday, and he already has 12 homers in less than 200 at-bats and is hitting .324. However, Monroe plays for a better team and has done it over the course of a full season. - Jeremy Jurek, Chicago, IL

B.F.: I'd go with Monroe. He's been on fire and you can expect him to finish strong for the contending Tigers. Dellucci, who has been battling a seemingly minor thigh issue, has solid power potential but isn't as talented as Monroe.

What lays in the future for Justin Huber now that KC traded for Ryan Shealy and still have Mike Sweeney on the roster? I haven’t seen Huber in any Omaha box scores lately and was wondering if he simply packed up and headed back to the land down under. - Scott McKeever

B.F.: Huber recently missed 19 games with a right hamstring injury and frankly doesn't have much of a role with the Royals at this point. He went 1-for-4 on Tuesday night against Triple-A New Orleans and remains a nice prospect. He'll probably get a September call-up and need a very nice month and terrific spring to be part of the Royals' long-term plans. A change of scenery would probably do him some good.

Who do you think from this list of players -- Carlos Quentin, Andre Ethier, Brandon Wood and Jeremy Sowers -- will have the greatest impact 1) next year and 2) over the long haul? - Larry Razbadouski, Columbus, OH

B.F.: Wood will be an elite power-hitting SS and probably a Fantasy superstar. However, that probably won't happen until late 2007 or early 2008. I like Quentin better than Ethier for next season, but Sowers probably has more value than either of them if your league favors pitching. Wood should be owned in all keeper leagues that allow players to stash minor leaguers and has the most value of this group despite being the furthest away.

I am in a 14-person keeper league and have two slots remaining for next years keepers and have to make a decision on which two to keep. Conor Jackson, Jeremy Hermida, Anthony Reyes, and Chad Billingsley are my choices. - Sean

B.F.: Billingsley is a no-brainer, as he'll be a very steady pitcher on a contending team. I'd take one of the hitters as opposed to Reyes, because having too many young pitchers is scary. Hermida's 2006 campaign has been extremely disappointing, but we feel he's still capable of Fantasy stardom. Jackson might be ready to contribute now, but Hermida probably has more upside for the long-term.
