Hitting looks good. Everyone has some weakness in nfbc so if yours is 5th OF and MI/CI then so be it, the rest is pretty solid. ARod w/ last pk in 1st rd...what's the world coming to?! :rolleyes:

The pitching staff I'm not as in love w/... some of those guys just make me nervous

you'll most likely rack up some K's, but.....beware!

Do you really plan on carrying Moustakas til June?

This ain't a slow draft. Another SP to stream or RP w/ upshot to close would've suited your team better imo. If against all odds the Rangers do put Feliz in rotation you will be chasing saves on ww all yr...in fact even if Feliz closes, you still might.

By the way, you sir most assuredly do NOT live in a cave. It is well known fact that hobbits live in hobbitholes, which means comfort!

Yes 5th OF is weak. MI between Hardy and Lowrie I'm OK. CI Nady should get full time AB's in the beginning until Moustakas comes up.

Yes the staff is a time bomb, but K's should rack up and I will be WW pitching once ST starts up and I see what I have and what is out there.

I drafted Feliz(he will not start)then things went haywire when one owner decide to punt wins and K's and drafted RP's. So I might be better than normal with what I have because others have worst. Yes It was a strange first draft.

and thanks on the location, that was from my last user name(oldwolf) that I had to change after the switch over.

Solid team except maybe at closer. The only questions I have would be about Walker and Hellickson. Seems a bit early for Walker and Hellickson. As good as Hellickson is doesn't he project as a 5th starter on a AL east team that is very cautious with it's pitching prospects?

Good Luck

[/QB]Considering you were dealing w/ an owner employing the old RP strategy then I agree, you actually came out quite well. You are prob rt about Neftali, can't see him not closing. Uehara is very underrated, I don't think Showalter just hands job to Gregg. Uehara had 55 K's in 44 IP and 5 WALKS! If he could just stay healthy. Venters ain't a bad gamble in the 22nd.

I agree w/ z, you may've jumped early on Walker, however when you have corner pick patience IS a virtue

One guy you got extremely late that really stood out to me was AJ Burnett. I know he was awful last yr, but that's why its called buying low

26th rd for a guy who has half decent resume, at worst gets ya K's, pitches for Yankees so run support no problem, has thrown at least 185 inn's last 3 yrs. If you believe last yr was an outlier than this is just ridiculous value. Who else they gonna run out there...Lou Costello? I mean Bartolo Colon!

Going to be tough to do the all-RP strategy this year because the minimum IP is 900 this year.

Good Luck Walker was the 12th 2b off the board and within the next 5 picks 13 & 14 went so the way the draft fell I didn't think it was to early, as I have him rated higher than mostwhich is 12th

but if the Pirates are going to hit McCut 3rd and Walker 2nd, may have to revise that.
