HP Allstarz First Round Mock Draft

For those who don't know, HP Allstarz is the premier fantasy baseball league out there. You think your league is better? I laugh at you. Anyway for the fantasy baseball fans out there, he is Mock Draft 2.0 for the 1st round of the draft that will be taking place on March 25th.

1. Nosh - Miguel Cabrera: This is a known fact that Noah will be picking Miggy barring another alcohol relapse where he ends up in the middle of nowhere with a naked dude in the trunk of his car.

2. Dylan - Albert Pujols: Another fact. A Pujols fan with the ability to DH

3. Rob - Matt Kemp: Number 1 ranked player in fantasy last year. Rob jumps on him as the obvious number 3 pick

4. Neil - Joey Bautista: Here is where things get fun. Bautista's power is for real and there is not a lot separating Votto, Fielder and AGon. Bautista is a shoe in for 40 home runs and plays a more coveted position in fantasy. Oh wait, he plays two.

5. Smith - Troy Tulowitzki Position scarcity has never been something that dominates HP Allstarz. At the same time my argument above stands. Smith likes Tulo and he plays SS. A top 5 producer if he can play a full year. He is 27 and plays in Colorado. Will hit .300 with 30 plus bombs at SS

6. Tank - Robinson Cano: Has him in the Keeper league as well. Why not have him in both leagues. The best 2B and it is not even close. What is not to like about his consistency.

7. Dan Bell - Joey Votto: I think he is the best of the AGon, Fielder group. Not as much power as Fielder but he will hit over .300 and plays in a wonderful hitters park

8. Scharf - Adrian Gonzalez: People thought his power numbers would jump in Fenway. Turns out it was the average that spiked as he developed into one of the best opposite field hitters in the game. Expect .320 and 35 home runs.

9. Juice - Justin Upton: It's hard to believe that Juice wont take an Outfielder here. I think this is Upton's year. Fantastic first full season. Sophomore slump in 2010. Huge 3rd year with a ridiculous slugging percentage. Why not 40 home runs in his 4th season. Also 20 bags

10. Monte - Jose Reyes: If he stays healthy, he will finish in the top 5. I may be more of a Reyes fan than most, but his approach in the box last year was amazing to watch. He seemed to finally put it all together. Now in a new park in Miami, I believe the warm weather creates a nice atmosphere for Jose to have a monster year.

11. Bill - Carlos Gonzalez: 5 tool outfielder who proved that there is no fluke about his game. I think at the end of the day, CarGo will be the guy here. Entering his 3rd full year, I expect 30/20 .300. Doesn't hurt that he plays in Colorado either

12. Big Rames - Prince Fielder: DOY!

13. Abe - Hanley Ramirez: I think all the question marks surrounding him right now will have evaporated by draft day. With SS and 3B eligibility, he is a sleek pick in a great lineup. 20/30 .300 potential. I can see Hanley lacing balls in the outfield as Reyes rounds third and coasts into home to give the Marlins a 1-0 lead. God Dammit!

14. Pat Bell - Evan Longoria: RBI machine at 3B. Real power threat who should hit better than he did last year. ROOOOLEN!

15. Jake - Jacoby Ellsbury: I doubt he hits 30 home runs again but his bat is legit and so is his speed. 40 stolen bases to go along with 200 hits. Contributes across the board and no reason to think he wont do it again.

Enjoy!
