Looks like a contender to me

Too many wasted picks. It'll probably catch up to you in the long run.

but there is potential and some key FA pick ups will be huge. just like for everyone. i dont think its too bad of a base.

Dirt Dogs- TY, I hope so



Quahogs- I did waste a few picks and youc oculd be right, won't do that Saturday.



Swampass- Good question on those 2 (Sheets, Hill) kind of like buying a scratch off lotto ticket, probably a loser. Volstad should be my 6th starter. But yes 1/2 the game is FAAB and I will need some help there.



TY all

guess you are right Fudd... is this any better or worse??

Main event team or satellite...doesn't matter, it's solid .



If it is a main event tm, I think you did a great job. Good luck.

rockitsauce- 1st team posted was satellite, 2nd main..

BA could be trouble (honestly who doesn't struggle w/ that cat) at least you have Ichiro.



I def like yer closers. SP has potential for alot of K's, if Oliver & Snell can reduce era & whip you've got a nice staff there...esp since Volstad should be in Fla rotation.



You certainly learned much from the satellite grasshopper! Well done.

Grasshopper?? I kind of like that.



Yes obviously alot lays on Arod. But as I was taught long ago it's hard to play this game "timid." I was aware of the risk and am a gambler so I rolled the dice.

it's from "Kung Fu"...70's tv show starring David Carradine. Interesting side note, producers chose Carradine over BRUCE LEE!



Now Carradine shills for Yellow book...while the little Dragon is a legend...dead, but still, a legend.
