What are everyone's expectations for Felipe Lopez? We can keep 8 in our league 12 team league (3 teams performing expansion draft beforehand), and I'm considering him as one of my final keepers. So far my list is:

1B Adam Dunn
2B Rickie Weeks
3B Morgan Ensberg
OF Gary Sheffield
SP John Patterson
SP Dontrelle Willis
RP Joe Nathan
SS Felipe Lopez (?)

I have RP Eric Gagne as well, but I'm waiting until spring training to see how he looks coming back from surgery. SP Bartolo Colon is another player I have, but I don't really consider him a keeper. A third option was a trade offer I received: Dontrelle Willis for Randy Johnson, John Smoltz, and Oliver Perez. But in that instance, I'm stuck dropping someone who will likely get picked up in the expansion draft.

I would say that FeLo is a solid keeper. I'd expect him to finish somewhere around .275/.340/.430 with 20ish HRs and maybe a few more steals as he learns the league better. At least, as a Reds fan, thats what I'm counting on from him!
