Current plan is built around landing Trout, Betts, Scherzer, deGrom, Martinez, Arenado and Orlando Arcia.

Best of luck to all of you trying to top that.

I'm very happy with this team. My plan going in was to target Trout for $50 or Yelich for $40-$43. When Trout went $51, I focused on Yelich who I was thrilled to get. My plan then was to pair him with Juan Soto for around $30 but when I had the chance to get Harper for only $33 I dove in. So I'm elated with the Yelich-Harper duo.

Overall, I think this team is much better than the one that finished one point out of second last year. LOVE my outfield. We'll see how it goes. Great auction and a lot of fun. Good luck to everyone. :)

C-Robinson Chirinos $4
C-Jonathan Lucroy $1
1B-Jesus Aguilar $22
2B-DJ LeMahieu $1
SS-Elvis Andrus $7
3B-Eduardo Escobar $6

MI-Chris Taylor $5
OF-Christian Yelich $43

Great time everyone. Great group of owners and everything worked well.

This team can't do worse than last year and I deserve credit for taking Corey Seager again after he GAVE ME ZERO PRODUCTION last year. But I'll ride him again. Enjoy this one:

C - Kurt Suzuki $2
C - Chance Sisco $2
1B - Eric Hosmer $9
2B - Asdrubal Cabrera $6
SS - Trea Turner $43
3B - Rafael Devers $8
MI - Corey Seager $17
CI - Yuli Gurriel $6
UT - Khris Davis $24
OF - Starling Marte $27
OF - Marcell Ozuna $12
OF - David Peralta $10
OF - Avisail Garcia $2
OF - Brian Anderson $2

P - Gerrit Cole $29
P - Zach Greinke $22
P - Mike Foltynewicz $11
P - Corbin Burnes $4
P - Reynoldo Lopez $4
P - Sean Newcomb $2
P - Michael Wacha $1
P - Aroldis Chapman $14
P - Jordan Hicks $3

I started with Trea Turner, Starling Marte and Gerrit Cole for a nice start. I knew I had to pound the power-hitters after getting Turner and Marte and hit it hard. We'll see if I have enough offense. In pitching, I just could never get that second closer to go with Chapman. It was amazing how the front-tier closers really didn't go for all that much ($14-$19), but man that final tier of players in line for saves now sure went high. I hate to have to do it, but FAAB will have to find my second set of saves this year unless Jordan Hicks lights it up in St. Louis.

All in all, a fun auction. We'll see if the players I targeted are good ones, but it was the second straight draft where I built around Trea Turner. Hopefully he comes through and stays healthy.
