Just curious if anyone would be crazy enough to pick up 2 of the main 4 SB guys with their #1 and #2 pick if they had the chance(Crawford,Ichiro,Pierre,Pods)
I was thinking of trying it in another league.. but would anyone be crazy enough to do it in the NFBC?

JAR - Bad move!!!! Very bad!!!! What happens if your combined team (keep in mind the rest of your picks can provide 10-20 SB's per) ends up with 45 more SB's than the second place guy? In this scenario: 1 more SB than the second place guy is no different than 45 more. Waste of resources mate!

I don't see Pods going in the first 3 rounds... But if you are in my league; I say he would be a great 1st or 2nd round pick for you.

OK - So I'm not as good as I thought I was; but at least I am consistent.

This is from an article I wrote for CREATiVESPORTS right after the season ended. It was the first three picks and not the first two. From a prior article, I wrote that only three of the 195 teams started off with two speed guys/non-power guys..
I looked at how all teams drafted in the first three rounds.
P = power hitter
N = non-power hitter or position scarcity
S = starting pitchers
C = closer
The thirteen league winners drafted as follows:
PPP – 2
PPN – 3
PNN – 1
PNS – 2
PPS – 2
PPC – 1
PSS – 1
PCC – 1
Only two league champions drafted a closer early.
Only two league champions drafted two pitchers early.
Five league champions drafted a starting pitcher early.
Eight league champions drafted at least two power hitters early
