Who do you believe will end up being the best late round pick in live fantasy league drafts?

 

Now obviously this wouldn't be someone like David Ortiz because he wouldn't be picked outside of the 1st round.

 

 

My sleepers - Curtis Granderson, Ryan Freel, Todd Walker, Aaron Boone, and hopefully Papelbon.

2 very good sleepers in a yahoo league are Rolen or Bonds. They have both of them ranked very low and likely wont get seen by casual players. You could grab them anywhere from rounds 3-8 and they should be top 2 rounds.......

matt holliday, beltran, pierre, rolen, crisp (before injury), giambi, renteria, beckett, lackey, haren, turnbow, harang, westbrook, arroyo, blanton, bonderman

 

a few sleepers

There was not one sleeper at all in that list you just named. How can Beltran go from projected #1 overall a year ago to sleeper? Thats not what a sleeper is. Beckett definetly wasnt either, the only sleeper you've got up there come to think of it might be Joe Blanton. That could be a boafide sleeper, the rest of those guys aren't really. I'm pretty sure I saw Turnbow go as the first closer in one of my leagues. My big sleeper this year has been Brian Fuentes and Mark Ellis for hitters. Bill Hall isn't a bad sleeper either.

Same could be said of Thome too. I got him in the 12th round.

Verlander.

Just recently picked him up.

 

Jason Bay = sleeper? No. He goes in the second round, tops.

 

I said Jeremy Hermida earlier, and other than Verlander and Prince Fielder I can't think of any others that haven't already been said. Matt Cain isn't exactly a sleeper, a lot of people know about him.

I asked myself the same question. He should be over that stiff Kyle Lohse

 

I don't know if maybe the fact that he got arrested right before the season started had something to do with it. I think it was drunk driving or something to that extent. Team might not feel he's mature enough for a promotion.

Bay's rated as a first rounder on most mock drafts I've seen.
