I say Jose Vidro. He is batting 3rd in the MAriner lineup, being a DH so he will be well rested and he is not even getting drafted. Screw drafting a second baseman and snag him in the last round.

<p>I say that's a pretty wimpy sleeper pick since he's well know, has been a solid two bagger for a long time and if anything, is only losing steam over the last few years.&nbsp; </p><p>Here's mine and I'll stay with my favorite team since I know them best.&nbsp; Adam Lind.&nbsp; If he gets in the lineup with the Jays he'll be a very solid hitter with decent power to all fields.&nbsp; He's no 50 hr guy, but 20-30 is not a reach either.&nbsp; The only problem is that the Jays are stacked in the outfield.&nbsp; They have Vernon Wells in center and he's going nowhere.&nbsp; Reed Johnson in left might actually be a better fielder than Wells (no shit) and is a real good lead off hitter with a good average and OBP, along with some good power numbers for a guy in the one spot and also only split last year.&nbsp; In right, Rios is really coming together and should also be all-star level as he was last year.&nbsp; To be honest, their is a good chance that the Jays trade one of them, and if so, Lind will be one hell of a late round steal.&nbsp; If it doesn't happen and he stays in trip A with the exception of injuries, he'll surely rip them up down there too but it won't help you out so there is a risk.&nbsp; But the kid can play and is definitely MLB hitter ready, yet not totally fielding ready for the majors.</p>

<p>i wouldn't draft Vidro for any of my teams.&nbsp; the guy never seems to stay healthy.</p><p>it sure is hard to be a sleeper these days with so many sites dedicated to fantasy...but if in a larger league and want to wait for a catcher or maybe a 2 catcher league alot of people like Chris Iannetta.</p><p>I don't think Mark Teahen or Alex Gordon would qualify as sleepers, but good late picks.&nbsp; Also Markakis on Baltimore.&nbsp; i just find it hard to label sleepers now.</p><p>Estaban Loaiza had a really nice end of year run last year that may spill over.&nbsp; matt Garza for the Twins.&nbsp; </p>

<p>its true sleeper is a tough term to define these days....&nbsp;&nbsp;Is it people who aren't known to the majority... or is it guys (last year)&nbsp;like Frank Thomas or Rahul Ibanez who preformed at a much higher level then anyone expected.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Garza is a good looking prospect but I think he may be hurt?</p>

<p>Markakis might even be too good to be a sleeper if you're drafting with fans of the AL East...he was just so good last year in the second half of the season.</p><p>I was in a draft last week in a keeper league where an unintentional sleeper was Kevin Youkilis.&nbsp; I drafted him as my back-up 1B, and everyone kinds groaned, like, &quot;he was still out there?...that's a lot of cheap runs &amp; RBIs&quot;</p><p>Personally, one guy I think can really turn some heads if he makes the team out of camp, is Joey Votto (1B).&nbsp; The guy seems to just know how to hit, much like Markakis.</p>

Ryan Shealey isn't a bad option either.&nbsp; he will probably only go for about&nbsp;25 HRs, but may&nbsp;get close to 100 RBI.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
