1) Kelly johnson

**Nodice123** · 03-25-2010, 10:14 PM

Reasoning behind this? or are you just being a homer (no hate)

**rektt** · 03-25-2010, 10:16 PM

Fausto Carmona has tore it up this spring, can he return to CY contending form?

**jacketfan** · 03-25-2010, 10:16 PM

because he is good? he just had a bad slump and lost his spot to prado who is a very good 2nd basemen(prado had a higher OPS than pedroia). he hit well the last 2 months of the season in limited at bats last year and is hitting well in ST this year

he's sucked every season except for one. id pass on that one.

Nick Johnson (srs)

**jacketfan** · 03-25-2010, 10:21 PM

nick johnson is a good one depending where he will hit in the line up. he always has a great OBP. and his power should go up. he is pretty injury prone though.

I heard Prado won the starting job again this year.

KJ is in arizona and last i heard. he was the clear favorite for the starting 2B job.

He won't be like the old Dice-K...Pretty much his career is on the decline....

**TylerBro30** · 03-26-2010, 12:49 AM

Phil Hughes will finally start fitting into the Yankees starting rotation...I choose him..

**TexasHeat** · 03-26-2010, 12:55 AM

Francisco Liriano

22:2 K/BB Ratio this spring, which means his dominating stuff is back

**blackberries** · 03-26-2010, 08:09 AM

Travis Hafner

**bustermac** · 03-26-2010, 08:22 AM

Chein Ming Wang

could be, but knowing he is pretty much going undrafted atm he could be a nice bench add just incase he starts off hot and finds himself in the 2 hole vice the 8 or 9

I've been burnt by him 2 or 3 times. So has everyone else who ever had him on their team.

He's baseball's version of Kwame Brown.

Most of the names in this thread are established players who have already have some success, or proven to be failures but everyone knows their names.

Sleepers are unknown guys who you'll draft or pick up and no one else knows why, but regrets not finding out about them later.

Here's an example:

Buster Posey

Really surprised they brought Molina back. SF actually toyed with Posey at 1st this year with "whats his face" doing so poorly.

**Stoicao** · 03-26-2010, 12:18 PM

Chris Tillman and Wade Davis

**FLAY** · 03-26-2010, 01:36 PM

Carlos Gonzalez
Tim Hudson (You can get him surprisingly late)
Howie Kendrick (not really a sleeper but he is primed for a breakout year)
Kevin Slowey

gonzalez has the potential but i think he is a overrated this year.
