So draft is done. What do you guys think of your teams?

I feel I took too many risks with my team. I have some serious, young talent but unless it all comes to fruition this year, I don't know that I will have a good chance to win.

my team is good, but that is because i had great keepers...i still suck at auctions :)

[Scoobz0202]

My team will probably crash and burn. This is my second year ever doing fantasy baseball and I have never done an auction in it. In football I've only done an auction twice and both times I was middle of the pack. Baseball I have found to be even more difficult. It was too late before I realized I hadn't paid really any attention to who I was drafting as far as, "Are they power hitters... do they give me steals.. etc". I was too busy trying to look at values and what not. I like auction. I think it is better than regular drafting. I just suck at it.

Nonetheless, my team should at least be fun. My team is the definition of young, upside. I just took too damn many of them.

Grandal, Rizzo, Wong, Arenado, Springer, B-ham, Soler, Polanco just on my offense in my starting lineup. Hanley and Choo are the only non-upside guys, and Choo is kind of upside when I hope he bounces back.

I always put less emphasis on established pitchers, so that's nothing new for me there. But outside of Hamels and Strasburg it will either be genius or a bunch of shit.

Either way, like I said, it will be fun to watch and see if my team is certain bottom dweller or a few moves from competing.

Oh, and clap, fuck you and your bumping up players strategy ;)

Hey Clap,

I just noticed your trade proposal. I forgot that the fantasy updates go in a side folder. I would seriously consider that if you sent it again, but that is up to you. I know Pedroia is having a big day so you may want to hesitate. But sample size and all that. But yea, totally up to you.

[claphamsa]

what was it :)

[Scoobz0202]

Pedroia for G. Polanco.
