I drafted my first of 3 leagues yesterday afternoon. This is my least favorite league because it's head to head, which I hate, and I don't know most of the guys that are in it. The buy-in is sizeable enough for me to care, however, so it makes up for everything else. This year I decided to go pitching and steals. It's a 12 team 6x5 league (standard 5x5 plus QS) with 4 keepers. I made the strategy decision at the end of last year and dumped Pujols, Granderson, Bay, etc. and ended up with Haren, Felix, Lester, and Ellsbury as keepers. Not a bad start if you ask me! On to the results:
1. Broxton
2. Jimenez
3. Papelbon
4. Billingsley
5. R. Soriano
6. Pierre
7. E. Cabrera
8. Garza
9. Fowler
10. Harden
11. Jenks
12. Podsednik
13. Castillo
14. Webb
15. Capps
16. Y. Molina
17. Kennedy
18. Loney
19. Crisp
20. Taveras
21. Gomez
Considering the pitching-heavy categories I don't really see any weakness barring injury problems. I should get 140 SB from my OF alone, as well as taking my share of weeks in BA and R. Pitching should be a gimme as well. If I can win every week 7-4 I'll make the playoffs and be impossible to beat, right?
