Did a filler draft for something to do...

[Witlon]

Quite possibly, my best ever...

C- <EMPTY>
1B- Helton(6), Giambi(15)
2B- Utley(4), Weeks(12)
3B- Glaus(9)
SS- Peralta(11)
OF- Guerrero(1), Abreu(2), Bay(3), Sizemore(7), Gomes(26)
SP- FHernandez(8), Colon(10), Garcia(17), Bonderman(20), Harang(22), Blanton(23), Perez(25)
RP- Rivera(5), Jenks(13), Gordon(14), Orvella(24), Shields(16), Duscherer(18), Baez(21)

Holds are accounted for, and OPS and TB are extra stats. Head to head league, no IP limit.

Knew I could wait on catcher from other drafts. Got speed/power in the first 4 rounds with Utley, Bay, Abreu and Vlad. Covered my weakness in SP with late picks Harang, Oliver and Blanton.

Should own the holds market with 3 of the top setup men in the league, and still pulled down 3/4 closers. With the league tilted toward power, I went Peralta-Weeks(15 HR, 30 SB hopefully) to help out my middle infield. Went without a catcher by design to add some depth. Gomes in the 26th is too hard to pass up, IMO.

What do you guys think?

[DirtyKash]

depending on what the number of starters and benchies you guys have in that league, going with no catcher is either quite strategic or incredibly moronic.

[MarinersFan87]

Felix in the 8th? :o

[Dry1313]

Looks good, but I'd say pick up a catcher and drop Harang.

[Witlon]

I have to try the no catcher thing at least for a while because...

A. There's no one availbale that won't hurt my team in at least 3 catagories.
and
B. I've never tried it before.

Story: McKain once did an all catcher draft, pissing off a whole bunch of people. He traded Ivan Rodriguez for Barry Bonds

[McKain]

true dat.

It took them way too many rounds to figure out I was doing it and they started mega-reaching. Like, Paul Bako in the 9th reaching.

[DirtyKash]

Hahahaha McKain that's Wonder how you finished in the league, eventually.

[McKain]

second or third to last

One guy got pissed off after the draft and dumped his entire team, and another dude had like 8 injured guys and never updated, whereas I drafted a team full of multi-postion catchers. I had a C, 1B, 3B, 2 OF, Bonds, a util, and I *believe* a 2B who were all C-eligible.

[Providence A's]

[McKain]

Should have gone for a team of multi-positional catchers more than just plane catchers; that way you could still compete and play spoiler!

[DirtyKash]

There really aren't any multi-positional catchers... And I missed out on Lo Duca and Ramon Hernandez cause two dudes took them in the 3rd round and 4th rounds when they saw I started out with 3 catchers, hah.

[McKain]

There used to be tons of multi-position catchers... guess they all lost fantasy eligibility

[Witlon]

I'm pretty sure Rob Fick is the only one around right now, unless I missed someone.
