Here are my observations:
-Strong infield with Fielder, Drew, Utley and Laroche
-He drafted 3 closer for a grand total of $36. I wish they were this cheap in UBA.
-His outfield is weak, as is his starting pitching after Billingsley and Kuroda.
-13 team leagues results in alot of 5th outfielders and 5th starters being drafted.
-After seeing Derek Carty's team yesterday, some owner has a VERY nice outfield and a VERY nice pitching staff.
