Cockcroft: Not on my team!

"I'm not going to draft David Price, period. He'd have to cost a dollar in my AL-only, probably, to be worthwhile."

It was that off-the-cuff comment of mine at our ESPN Fantasy Baseball summit in early March that made me take a step back and think deeply about my rankings philosophy. After all, you can plainly see that I do not rank Price outside my draft-worthy pool, and it was in part of that very discussion in which my colleagues, Eric Karabell and AJ Mass, and I raised this important debate.

Price is merely one of the more extreme, and injury-influenced, examples of such strong opinions of mine. Nine other much-less-scary, much-less-obvious names are among my list of players I'm avoiding in 2016, judging by their current average draft position (ADP) or simply discussing their expectations with fellow fantasy owners. Maybe I'll land one or two of them somewhere, if that's how values play out. In all likelihood, though, I'd be amazed if they did.

I won't have Sanchez, like I won't have Posey or Lucroy, ADP is just too high... but I have no problems with the others.

Then again this is from ESPN so we have to take it with a grain of salt
