Top Main Event Teams coming out of draft

mother · Post by **mother** » Sat Mar 28, 2009 3:20 am

So here's a suggestion for some posting: nominate the one team from your Main Event League (not your own) that, based on the draft, you think has the best chance of doing some damage overall.

I'll start with Team Bono from NY4:

Soto, Y. Molina, Pujols, Brian Roberts, Lowell, Theriot, Manny, Dunn, Ibanez, Milledge, Winn, OHud, Mora, Figgins

Dan Haren, Dempster, Lilly, Floyd, A. Sanchez, D. Bush, Sherrill, Arredondo, Leo Nunez

Could be light on saves if things don't break right, but otherwise very solid. Contenders from other leagues?

I don't think this team has a chance at the overall. The pitching staff isn't strong enough as of today.

I posted it a few day ago on another thread. I took it down after about 15 minutes. I'll put it back up after I draft my online leagues.

I can say I have some batting average risk, whip could be a concern, and saves might be a problem.

How bad does a draft have to be for you to call it "interesting" ???

I'll assume pretty bad...but you could mean the good kind of interesting.

~Lance [/QUOTE]An interesting team would be one that had a few minor problems that are fixable on the wire. It is just a matter of the owner identifying the key pieces and securing them off the wire.

Definitely light on saves, but you left out Hanrahan - but still need at least 1 more and prob 2 more closers.

Also agree with Shawn a little but thats what the waiver wire is for and who knows who this years Cliff Lee is going to be.
