Cracks me up.. The guy is new to HBD, he takes on a dogshit team and then he's accused of tanking for assuming that his dog **** team will probably still be fairly ****** after 1 season..

+1

from my standpoint..here are the top 5 players.....

http://www.whatifsports.com/HBD/Pages/Popups/ProspectProfile.aspx?pid=4670322 -  Campbell
http://www.whatifsports.com/HBD/Pages/Popups/ProspectProfile.aspx?pid=4669725 - Sojo
http://www.whatifsports.com/HBD/Pages/Popups/ProspectProfile.aspx?pid=4670321 - Radar
http://www.whatifsports.com/HBD/Pages/Popups/ProspectProfile.aspx?pid=4669724 - benard
http://www.whatifsports.com/HBD/Pages/Popups/ProspectProfile.aspx?pid=4669718 - Siquriros

i am concerned with Radar's Health rating and Campbell's makeup ratings.     I think the three SS are all very good.    

We cannot see prospects if we're not in your world.

You can copy paste their ratings from their player card and post them here

 Radar has 94 Velocity and three great pitches.  Sweet stuff....except he has 42 Health.  He's a walking Disabled List. It's too bad, but he's likely to be injured a bunch. Campbell is better than I thought.  He has three good pitches.  He might not quite get to his projections (Makeup) but he's pretty nice.

So I like Sojo.  He'll be a terrific 2B or 3B.  Siquiros is pretty nice, too.  But his 71 Durability means he's going to miss a lot of games each year. 

Bernard is better.  But he lacks pop in his bat.  If he hits projections, he'll hit .310 and have an OBP of .370, he'll hit lots of doubles with his speed.  He'll play 162 games and steal a bunch of bases.  He's probably better suited for 2B/3B...but could play SS.

If you need pop in the lineup, go with Sojo.  If you need speed and a #1/2 hitter, go with Bernard.  Looking at it now, I think I would take Bernard.  I like guys who are healthy andplay 162 games.  He does, and he's pretty good.

Thanks.  Siqueiros is much the best SS, but I would probably take Campbell.  Either is a worthy #1 pick.  Rader's health is a real concern and I like Campbell a little better even independent of that, and I would not touch Sojo or Benard.  Are both Siqueiros and Campbell easily signable?

Siqueiros and Campbell - both looking to sign.  will sign for slot money

Siqueiros has 69 durability now; it will be higher than 71 when he develops

Siq and sojo are 3b, not SS. i prefer 85+ defensive SS tho

kcden,  Why do you think his Durability will be significantly higher than his projection?

I will put it to you this way, go out and find a drafted player that has 69 as his durability in the first season showing on his player card; what is his durability now?  In every case, other than injuries, I think you will find that it is greater than 71
