The difficult part will be trying to select 2 keepers for next year out of Jose Bautista, David Ortiz, Ian Desmond, Max Scherzer and Jose Fernandez.

Just off the top of my head, Bautista and Scherzer.

Yeah, I'm sort of sick of Bautista's shit though. He's missed the last month or two of the season for 2 years in a row now. He's basically a ~.250 hitter. I was almost leaning towards Scherzer/Fernandez. I have a man crush on Jose Fernandez. My league counts a ton of pitching categories, he finished as a top 10 SP as a rookie, and has so much upside. But on the other hand, it's so hard to replace Bautista's power.

I'm just leery of Fernandez.

If you're done with Bautista, I'd probably go Desmond.
