Nice team for your first auction. Some pitching question marks and outfield is very weak. But, overall nice job!! Curious, how much did you pay for Kershaw?

We paid 35 for kershaw figuring he will dominate again...Hoping that our infield plus 2 of the best catchers carrys us with steals & power...

I think you did pretty well with this squad. As someone else already observed, my big concern is your outfield. I keep expecting Father Time to catch up with Torii Hunter and you really can't afford to have that happen. I don't see Andre Ethier being much help, but I think you may have a solid replacement in Dustin Ackley. You have strong catching and I like the pitching staff. Kershaw is a great foundation and I don't see too much downside in the rest of the starters. I expect CC to rebound from last year. He may not be an ace any more but he should be plenty solid enough.

Good luck!

Kevin

Who is your Middle Infielder? Or is it Peralta, in which case: Who is your Utility?

My thoughts:

Your pitchers are good enough and should keep you competitive in the P categories

Your OF are all #4 or #5 OF, and I'm not sure you can count on 20+ HR from any of them...maybe Reddick.

Segura/Altuve/Crawford can get you about 100 SB if they match last year's stats, but the rest of your guys won't add many more SB to that, leaving you middle of the pack there.

Good luck

Thanks for your thoughts guys.

I FORGOT JIMMY ROLLINS & just fixed my posts for the 4 th time..Im a rookie at posting not reading posts lol

Im hoping that Posey & Santana make up any power numbers i may miss with my outfield.
My Middle infielders With Altuve/Segura ./Rollins

Guess that makes me team better in sbs...

Posey isn't a big HR hitter.

Im hoping he returns to 24 hr -100 rbis guy from yr before as hes still a young player.
Hoping to compete for title!!!
