    Think you have to go with Trout. After him , Harper , and Goldshmidt , I am really high on Carlos Correa. Kid is special and he plays SS so you get a big edge at a position similar to Gronk at TE in Football.

    Smart move, Trout is the best 5-category guy. My top 4 in order are Trout-Goldschmidt-Harper-Donaldson. I get that Kershaw is a GOD, but I prefer to stack offense first (preferably at all 5 categories if possible) and wait on pitching. There are always pitchers that come our of nowhere to post career seasons every year.

    I agree, LT.

    Also, if you play rotisserie, like I do, it's a really bad week when you're 1st round ace has a bad game, and you have to wait another 5 days to see your 1st round ace play again.
    Then you gotta watch Harper McCutheon, Donaldson rack up some of those offensive #'s that you need

    i would only take Kershaw in the first round in a points league. other than that, as LT said, you can find quality starters in the final rounds and a few will come out of no where and can be had on FA.

    The easy and correct pick in Trout at #1.

    Nice player but definitely a reach at 4. Then again, if the owner REALLY wanted him, then he had no choice because Correa would not have gotten back to him.

    I would have taken Josh Donaldson at #4 there myself.

    Yeah prolly what his thinking was, that he needed to reach a little for him here cause he wouldn't have made it back. Heck I wanted him at 12. I got Altuve at 12 anyway so I am happy about that

    If it was a keeper league then I could understand. He might still turn out OK though.
