     Question - When do you take Tim Lincecum in 12man Keeper leagues with standard 5x5 scoring?

     Answer - Tim is getting known in a lot of leagues. I expect him to go somewhere in the 7-9 rounds. The longer you can hold off the better. Getting to know what your league members drafting habits are can help a lot in determining which players will go first and which prospects are on which teams radar. Example, one season K. Wood was a favorite and went earlier then normal.

     So, to be safe and depending on how much you personally want him, you may want to consider drafting him in the 6th or even 5th round. I usually draft 2 Batters and 2 Pitchers that are solid players, then possibly go for a player like Tim or another prospect that I know another team wants badly. Fielder, for example, before he was better known.
