Who Should I Keep?

I'm having a pretty tough time determining who to keep in my H2H points league.

Keeper rules:

• Have to be drafted round 10 or later
• Maximum of 4 keepers (at least 1 hitter and 1 pitcher)
• Keepers can be kept a maximum of 3 years
• Keepers move up 2 rounds/year

Keepers I'm considering:

• Eric Hosmer (19th round - last year)
• Matt Carpenter (25th round - first year -- he's a definite)
• Josh Donaldson (25th round - first year)
• Brad Miller (25th round - first year)
• Wil Myers (12th round - first year)
• Alex Cobb (13th round - first year)
• Julio Teheran (16th round - first year)
• Kris Medlen (23rd round - second year)
• Tony Cingrani (25th round - first year)
• Sonny Gray (25th round - first year)
• Danny Salazar (25th round - first year)

Right now, Carpenter is definite and I'm leaning towards Hosmer, Myers and Cobb but I'm pretty undecided. My scoring format is below. Any thoughts?

Can you post how those guys ranked last season based on your points?

Of course -- see below

You can only keep Hosmer one more year? Am I reading that properly?

Then what a redraft just happens? How many teams?

 Yeah, Hosmer is in his 3rd year of keeper eligibility, so he reenters the draft pool in 2015 (or if I don't keep him this year).

12 team league

Touch call. I'd probably take Carp, Hosmer, Donaldson and Teheran personally.

Thanks! I think I'm going to ditch Myers for Donaldson too. Myers still has some growing pains to experience and only can keep Donaldson for 3 years compared to Myers' 2. It may come back to haunt me but that's the name of the game.

Any reason why you would keep Teheran over Cobb. Just personal preference?

I like Teheran in ATL much better than Cobb in TB. Plus you took him three rounds later

I've got a Keeper League draft Thursday night.  Who would you keep?

10 teams, we can keep up to 9 players. Our salary cap is at $260. Rotisserie.

Roster Positions:    C, 1B, 2B, 3B, SS, OF, OF, OF, Util, SP, SP, SP, RP, RP, P, P, P, P, BN, BN, BN, BN, DL, DL, DL
Batters Stat Categories:    Runs (R), Home Runs (HR), Runs Batted In (RBI), Stolen Bases (SB), Batting Average (AVG)
Pitchers Stat Categories:    Wins (W), Saves (SV), Strikeouts (K), Earned Run Average (ERA), (Walks + Hits)/ Innings Pitched (WHIP)

I was thinking about Freeman, Molina, Puig, Seager, Bumgarner, Jansen, Bucholz, and Samardzija (crazy I know)
