Pretty strong roster there if the OF/Closers don't crap on you.

As someone who was in your draft, you were the only one who I consistently said to myself after half of your picks "Wow, you reached for that one"...And your pitching is going to come back to bite you.

Your pitching is not very good at all......good luck with them arms..

I've been in almost a dozen OC and XII drafts and seen them break a bunch of different ways (early pitching, late pitching, early closers, late closers); but if you feel like he reached on half of those picks, I'm not sure how your valuations sit, because that roster looks pretty solid to me. Back end starting pitching is very easy to add in the 12-teamers.

It's a strong team.

You're week in Ks and if you try and chase them it could screw up your WHIP & ERA but it's one of the better teams I have seen.

Thanks Matt. There could be some K upside there but the way the team is constructed I probably would not chase it if it would hurt me elsewhere.
