Thank you but unfortunately being a favorite doesnt always translate into winning!

I have always found saves to be available on the wire, hopefully this year is no exception!

Good luck to you too! Jeff cant possibly win league 4. He didnt draft David Herndon!

I couldn't trust ADP much at all for SP's. Think you did pretty well with the top three starters you got. You'll need Porcello and Jackson to really come through for you to have the needed depth.

i facilitated your league 4 in NY..you guys were great to work with...i kept saying to myself...wow there is a ton of yellow on the board. It was definitely a crazy draft....heavy on pitching...good times tho.

good luck to you all

2B - D. Espinosa - 15-15

SP - T. Lilly - 10-1

SP - H. Kuroda - 13-15

SP - B. Cecil - 25-15

RP - C. Marmol - 5-15

RP - J. Papelbon - 9-15

RP - H. Kuo - 27-15

Res - Lidge, Venters, Moustakas, Britton, Hannigan, Penny, Blake Agreed, your starting pitching is your primary concern. I do think Lilly will have a good year for you. In hindsight, you may have been better off passing on Marmol and grabbing a starter in round 5. Of course, that could entirely depend upon how you liked the starting pitchers on the board at the time. I didn't see any "5th round worthy" starters when I was picking, so I went outfield. Marmol should have a big season for you, nonetheless.

I too was in NY 4:

Thole, Salty

Tex, C. Johnson, Laroche

Beckham, Andrus, Nishioka

Heyward, Stubbs, A Jax, Huff, Venable, Frese

Halladay, Lee, Oswalt, Dempster, Stauffer, C. Young, McLellan, Franklin, McGee, Aardsma Quite a bold drafting strategy, taking 3 pitchers in the first 5 rounds! Sort of the opposite of me; I took hitters in the first 7 rounds. Intuitively, you would seem to be inviting a shortage of offense, just as I should be short on the mound. You'll need to be proactive w/FAAB to address hitting throughout the season. You've got enough speed, especially if Venable comes through for you. Power and average could be dicey. One of us figures to be disappointed with how things pan out in the Seattle bullpen!
