    Nice team figuring I picked 12th, I like the rotation and the bullpen. Team BA will suck but they can hit the long ball and steal bases(100+ for the year), runs is not a strong point nor is RBIs

    Does anyone like to take a guess on who has the best/worst team in your own opinion?

    Best: MSU but not by much IMO

    Worst: jets526

    1. (8) Miguel Cabrera
    2. (17) Mark Teixeira
    3. (32) Jimmy Rollins
    4. (41) Matt Holliday
    5. (56) Félix Hernández
    6. (65) Matt Cain
    7. (80) Delmon Young
    8. (89) Jeremy Bonderman
    9. (104) Chris Ray
    10. (113) Rocco Baldelli
    11. (128) Rich Harden
    12. (137) Nick Markakis
    13. (152) Chris Capuano
    14. (161) Russell Martin
    15. (176) Jorge Cantú
    16. (185) Eric Chávez
    17. (200) Chris Duffy
    18. (209) Ian Kinsler
    19. (224) Akinori Otsuka
    20. (233) Bartolo Colón
    21. (248) Kevin Millwood

    I don't see myself having the worst team at all. I have tons of power with Teieira, Cabrera, and Holliday plus some speed with Rollins. Rollins also contributes HRs, RBIs and Runs. Felix and Cain are both 3rd year pitchers (the year pitchers break out). Bonderman is a young pitcher with over 200 K's last year. I am short one reliever but that isn't a big deal because they can be found. My OF past Holiday isn't the strongest but its good for a keeper league and they are both pretty good players.

    But, I guess we will find out.

    I dont think my draft was bad. I have a pretty good core of young players with a mix of veteran players.

    Im pretty solid at the RP position. My SPs arent that good in paper but they all look very promising.

    My Offense has a mix of power hitters and some base stealers .. so im pretty happy with my draft.

    Btw: Freddy Sanchez, Chad Tracy and Rich Aurillia are on the Trading block ...

    Julio Lugo has a lot of potential for you at 2B, but you are correct in saying that you're weak at 3B. I like the Berdard pick btw - very consistent and posts good ERA, WHIP, and W stats year-in and year-out.

    P - Jonathan Papelbon
    P - Fernando Rodney
    P - Zach Duke

    BN - Josh Johnson (will be moved to DL)

    ------

    I like my team. We're gonna hit alot of homeruns and rbi, score alot of runs, and hit for a pretty good average. The only thing that we're not really that good at is stealing bases, but whatever.

    My pitching has two anchors in Verlander and Sabathia, plus Papelbon who will probably be pretty good. I'm hoping Duke can get back to the form of two years ago, and if not, Johnson will take his place in a couple months. I like Borowski in that Cleveland pen, and Rodney is going to be nasty for Detroit. Broxton will be good also, and if he becomes the Dodger's closer, it will be an added bonus.
