      Trout & Felix are no brainers. I like Trumbo, but his second half worries me as all his numbers went the wrong way. He has the power but the batting average will always be in the .250/.260 area. I view him the same way as I did Adam Dunn for years, but the lack of BB, the high K's and batting average worry me.
      Rios had a nice comeback, but has been to inconsistant over the years and with only 3 keepers I think you can get him back, if not someone just as good. If you don't keep Trumbo, I'd keep Rios.
      Howard is near the age where a player usually starts to regress. I would keep Trumbo over him just for the upside, and if Trumbo qualifies for thrid in your league it's a big plus. I also would probalby keep Rios over Howard. You can replace everything Howard would give you with someone like Allen Craig.

      I would say Trout and Trumbo. Trout is an obvious choice, but Trumbo is young and usually qualifies for multiple postions. Howard is old and slow, and Rios is too streaky for me.

      That is a tough one. If its a long term league, probably Trumbo, otherwise Howard. Rios is too up and down from season to season.
      Q: Who is a better long term keeper for me; Dan Haren or Trevor Bauer?
