I thought you guys did a really nice job on many fronts for your first auction. Your hitting is very well rounded. You were patient in your bidding - that can be very hard to do - and bought a really nice combination of power/speed players.

I'm glad you guys joined the league. You will be tough competition. Good luck. :)

Appreciate the compliments. Staying patient was our main focus but it certainly wasn't easy. I don't think we had our first pitcher until over 100 picks into the draft, which was nervewracking. We also ended up with several players we had no intention of taking, especially early on. Had a blast though and it's nice to get a feel for what players are "hot" heading into the main. I'm sure we will be back next year regardless of finish. What a great format. :)
