Hey Ryan, looks to be real short on HR, which usually means RBI also. I like the 3 monster setup guys with Broxton, Betancourt and Pena. I assume no closers was by choice, I like the front 3 but nothing after that, might counter what you tried to do with the closers in waiting. I like the upside of the pitching bench, but hitting bench has upside but very good chance none of the 4 see any significant playing time at all. You would need 3 of the nech hitters to get time to get anything out of them, if not you will spend to much money in FAAB to fill your bench needs

Yeah - don't disagree with the power observation - really missed out on a couple of targets - obviously I need bounce back years by Dye and Laroche and I need Longoria to be the real deal. I think there is a chance that Ryan Shealy could prove to be a real bargain this year. The setup-guy approach was deployed after missing out on a couple of closer runs and then it just seemed to make more sense to abandon closers all together - obviously I need Lyon, Borowski and Saito to fail and a Mariano injury wouldn't hurt either. As for my Starters I am pretty happy with all my late picks and really was thrilled to get cueto as an endgamer- if he wins a spot out of camp I feel even better about it.

I'd get rid of Lind and Shealy b/c Lind will probably get sent down (Stairs, Reed Johnson, and Stewart are blocking his path) and Shealy is even behind Ross Gload in the depth chart.

I forgot to mention that I love the Cueto pick. He's tearing it up this Spring and has a good chance of being this year's Lincecum/Gallardo.



The Reds are more high on him than Bailey.
