    Just because I am bored.

    I drafted a standard yahoo scoring baseball league with zero research. Thoughts?

    Drafting 12th of a 12 team league: (rd selected)
    Ca: Jarrod Saltalamacchia (23rd)
    1b: Michael Cuddyer (15th)
    2b: Martin Prado (8th)
    3b: Alex Rodriguez (2nd)
    SS: Rafael Furcal (10th)
    OF:
    Justin Upton (4th rd)
    Alex Rios (5th rd)
    Carlos Quentin (9th rd)

    SP:
    Felix Hernandez (1st)
    Clayton Kershaw (3rd)
    Cole Hamels (6th)
    Francisco Liriano (7th)
    Fautismo Carmona (17th)
    CJ Wilson (19th)
    Ervin Santana (21st)

    Relievers:
    Matt Capps (22nd)
    Andrew Bailey (12th)

    Bench:
    3b Casey McGehee Mil (11th)
    OF Grady Sizemore Cle (13th) I just couldnt pass on him and reputation.
    OF Angel Pagan NYM (14th)
    1b/OF Luke Scott Bal (16th)
    SS Asdrubal Cabrera (18th) I really did not see anything I liked
    1b Adam LaRoche Was (20th)

    I like your rotation. Too bad Bailey is hurt and Capps isn't a closer anymore.

    Shows you how much I have researched, I had no clue Bailey was even being looked at for anything. LOL. Man I just missed drafting Nathan in the mid rounds (went like 3 picks before me).

    Who would you dump first to make room for another closer? Only 1 dl spot allowed sadly.

    Capps since he won't be getting many saves.

    Put Bailey on the DL, drop Capps and find a true closer.

    Wagner Retired
    Jenks setup
    Lindstrom setup
    Affeldt

    Matt Thorton, Jake McGee, Brandon League just to name a few. I would drop Carmona to be honest.

    All 3 drafted. Rounds placed beside them.

    I usually punt saves because outside of a handful of elite closers the rest don't help in multiple categories enough to merit taking over everyday players in fantasy baseball. Plus there is always 100 closers who get chances cause of injuries, suckitude, or trades.

    All of these guys have minimal-to-no value at the moment. Without knowing the full list of available relievers, I can only assume any reliever who has registered a save this season has already been taken.

    Wait, those guys were considered "top" relievers? Aside from Wagner, that is.

    Added and dropped Meek.

    My relievers right now:
    Walden Anaheim
    Capps Minnesota (Said may get some save opps early to keep from overloading Nathan)
    Rauch Toronto (suppose to get some saves while Dotel is recovering)
