Who should I keep for my fantasy baseball team?
12 team, $260 budget, can keep 10. I put a * next to the one's I'm thinking about keeping. What do you think?
Pierzynski $10
* LaRoche $10
Lawrie $25
* Reyes $28
Morneau $7
Bautista $37
* Cespedes $11
* Ethier $9
Desmond Jennings $19
* Stanton $31
Ichiro $11
Wil Myers $10
Machado $10
Bonifacio $6
Starling Marte 10
* Darvish $15
Kershaw $34
Cliff Lee $26
*Chapman $10
*Samardzija $10
* Lance Lynn $10
Tyler Skaggs $10
* Jim Johnson $1
Ernesto Frieri $10
Fiers $10
Beachy $10
I'm thinking I can let a lot of the high priced guys go and probably get them cheaper than what their contract is worth. Which young guys are worth their values between Chapman, Lynn, Samardzija, Myers, and Machado? Being a Marlins fan (please have sympathy), I wanted to hang on to Stanton. Any suggestions?

I like Stanton a lot this year;You may not want to hear this,,,,,but he'd probably do a lot better if he was traded to a contender with a more hitter friendly home ballpark.
(Could you imagine Stanton hitting between Votto & Jay Bruce @ that banbox homerun launching pad in Cinci.?60 homers wouldn't be out of the question for Stanton then.)
That Marlin home ballpark is just a damp cavernous deep drive killing park where balls don't carry very well at all.
You don't have many cheap players..
I think Wil Meyers will be a beast;Maybe after the allstar break.I'd probably keep Myers over Lynn.
And,I'd pay the $24 difference & keep Kershaw over Chapman,Chapman may not be able to handle becoming a starter & go back to closing,or worse yet he could completely blow out his arm like Neftali for Texas did in the same situation.You should focus on talent more than penny pinching,because your drafts' 1st round will be looking at players ranked around 121-133 overall;When you factor in 10 keepers for 12 teams.If you throw out a stud like Kershaw amongst a bunch of middle tier players his price could go way up.So I highly doubt you'd be able to redraft Kershaw any cheaper.
I'd definitely try to redraft Beachy (Then stash him on your DL),Lynn,and Machado (Better deal then Lawrie),if you can get them a little cheaper.
Other then that I like your picks.
