Late Round Pick CI Help needed, Johnson v. Davis

by Hyatt on Feb 17, 2011 12:54 PM EST

In the 21st round of a slow draft for a 5x5 roto keeper league. I'm looking for a corner infielder who can produce in my Util spot. So I'm wondering who I should pick. Since it's a keeper league, one part says take Ike Davis. However, since I'm struggling for some competitiveness in the power, Dan Johnson may be the call. What do you think?

This sentence is to make sure I get over 75 words.

I like Ike

Johnson could outperform Davis this year but it’s no certainty and since it’s a keeper league you gotta go with Ike. Davis could eventually turn into a useable #1 first baseman so it’s worth the pick.

Ike

I like Ike at this part of the draft. Who knows, but it’s possible Dan Johnson is still available with your next pick. I’m sure Ike won’t be.

Gotta go with Ike

I just don’t see much upside (if any) to Dan Johnson.

A lock for full time ABs with the Mets, and the madoff mess likely means their is no cash to chase a high profile firstbaseman in the off season. Johnson could rebound or he could find the Rays addicted to the elite defense that Pena provided over the past seasons and sit him more frequently than his Moneyball skill would indicAte.
