Fantasy Baseball Roundtable: Undraftable players
Posted by Derek Carty at 2:09amThis week's Fantasy Baseball Roundtable was hosted by Adam Ronis at Newsday. The question posed by Adam:
Do you have players that you will absolutely not draft even if they fall far in snake drafts or go cheaply in an auction and if so why? Include examples.
Check it out here. I found it interesting that some of the guys did indeed say that there were otherwise draftable players who they wouldn't draft regardless of circumstance. Obviously, as you can see by my response, I feel differently.

No way I would ever draft Derek Jeter. Not even in the 24th round. Go Bosox!
