any good thoughts on sleepers????

Posted: Fri Feb 27, 2004 5:14 pm

First pick, take Pujols unless the other guy takes anybody besides ARod, then take him. As far as sleepers go, here are some guys that may fall farther than they should:

B. Giles
Chavez
J. Giambi
Huff
Berkman
Santana
Webb
Teixeira
O. Cabrera
M. Morris
M. Giles
W. Miller
C. Lee
Edmonds
Gibbons
Burroughs
Loretta

I know those guys aren't all "Sleepers", but from what I've seen, they have been going way later than they should.

Schultz added Klesko and Harden. Those are good. Also look for Nevin and Chipper to bounce back really well.
