2007 Atlanta Braves and New York Mets Fantasy Values

Here are the values I would pay in 4X4 NL-only keeper leagues that follow traditional Rotisserie baseball rules. I know most people play 5x5 leagues, but the translation should be fairly simple. Ask yourself, whether a player is valued correctly relative to those above and below him i.e is Andruw Jones better than Chipper Jones. If you have a mixed league auction, ask yourself who will go for more money i.e. Adam laRoche or Edgar Renteria. And so on.

Have I left someone off? Certainly. Are this lists impervious to alteration? Certainly not. There is a ton of off-season left, and situations change. But to prepare properly, you must have a general lay of the land, and these rankings will provide that. Let the debate begin!

Atlanta
$30+ Andruw Jones
$17-$29 Chipper Jones Jeff Francoeur
Adam LaRoche Brian McCann
$10-$16 Edgar Renteria
$1-$10 Matt Diaz Ryan Langerhans
Kelly Johnson Scott Thorman
$20+ John Smoltz Bob Wickman
$10-$19 Rafael Soriano
$1-$10 Tim Hudson Mike Hampton
Chuck James
NY Mets
$30+ Jose Reyes Carlos Beltran
David Wright
$17-$29 Carlos Delgado
$10-$16 Moises Alou Paul LoDuca
$1-$10 Jose Valentin Shawn Green
Lastings Milledge Ben Johnson
$20+ Pedro Martinez Billy Wagner
$10-$19 Tom Glavine
$1-$10 John Maine Orlando Hernandez
Ambiorix Burgos Oliver Perez

Wow, you're really trying to stir things up
Brian McCann is in a bracket higher than Renteria? I don't see it. I think my posting that Renteria is available at $26 as a par value guy in our inflation driven league must have motivated you. And Amborix Burgos has a value other than $1, $2?

Propaganda!
This is to get you bidding like crazy for the flame-throwing reliever, you Mets homer!

Renteria has had three consecutive season's of basically 10/70/17/.290.  Eliminate 2003, and he has essentially done that for the entire 21st century.

I do believe McCann is more valuable than Renteria.  Renteria's SBs are not enough to off-set the production from catcher.  A 22-year-old catcher who just went 24/93/.333 is something that would push Renteria to the next level down.
