So...Should I keep Ellsbury or Adam Jones?
Also any tips on what rookies/young players are gonna breakout out the MLB level? Shelby Miller? Is Taveras too young?

get julio teheran. slated to be the braves 5th starter and is doing very well in spring training so far. he is a top prospect and should do well this year.
also, starling marte, josh rutledge, matt harvey, adam eaton, wil myers, will middlebrooks, mike moustakas, salavador perez, jarrod parker, jurickson profar, jacob turner, julio teheran, lorenzo cain, and yasmani grandal are all good sleepers. remember that grandal is suspended for 50 games.
bautista, haren, lester, romero, ellsbury, hosmer, howard, werth, and garza are just a few rebound candidates that could be grabbed in the mid to later rounds.
jones clearly had the better year, but ellsbury's 2011 campaign is still looming, so that is a tough decision.
i wouldn't draft miller until he definitely wins the 5th starter job. he is competing with two others, trevor rosenthal and joe kelly. if he gets called up later, or if it is implied that he will be called up soon, grab him. same for taveras.
hope this helps

I have some Xander Bogaerts fantasy questions that I thought Sox fans on this board might be qualified to help answer. I have clinched a fantasy playoff berth in my league and last week claimed Xander off waivers. Any contributions from Xander this year are gravy, I added him mostly for his keeper value. Roster spots in my league are minimal and pretty valuable though, especially when the playoffs roll around. I am just wondering if anyone here has some insight into the likelihood that Xander will be on the roster on opening day 2014? I know things are fluid, especially with Drew a FA. Does Xander seem like a lock to start in the bigs regardless of where Drew lands? Or does Xander project more to be a midseason addition to the big league team like Mike Trout in 20102? Any logical projections are appreciated. Thanks!

I'd bet he starts in the majors. Difference is if they bring Drew back. There's nobody out there worth bringing in to play short really.
Tough to answer whether he's worth a roster spot without context.
