Young and Gordon were my next two targets. Nice values here.

Thanks, I was originally going to pick up a pitcher or two here, but I just couldn't pass those two guys up as I almost picked them last time it was on me.

PM sent to TRO.

Utley was another I was considering. He's not as bad as he was last year and I already have a half broken 2B so I could probably put them together to make a full 2B

When I last picked, there was a good supply of 2B left to be had, so I waited. Oops.

A bunch of creaky veterans on this team.

9.4 SP Daniel Hudson, ARZ

I think in the last few picks, quite a few bargain "old guys" off the board- and I'm including Butler, who is young, but has "old man skills" and people seem to think have peaked. A lot of the fantasy baseball masses seem to draft solely on potential and not production so I think there are good bargains to be had.

In this league, I always see MizzouRah with that pattern- he drafts a pile of guys who had off years and some continue to decline but a lot bounce back. He never has the hot young prospects that are out there but goes for a team of steady veterans. Problem is, he reaches like 3 rounds to have every Cardinal on his team so that pollutes the player pool ("David Freese in round 9! SOLD!")

Ok, I'm feeling pretty good at grabbing a pitcher at the start of the run rather than at the back end

That's the bad thing about having an end pick. I like the double pick, but so many runs can happen. Still I have a few pitchers and hitters out there I like for my upcoming two picks.

I strongly considered Werth last pick. Feeling pretty good about getting Hudson, tho

Casey Kotchman, circa 2007, come on down!

I'm going to be in meetings the rest of the morning so I probably won't be able to check until after noon. However, I doubt we'll get back up to me by then.
