This team is from a theme league where we picked one player from each team. I was missing out on most of my targets during the draft, so I decided to try to go heavy on pitching and defense. There was no salary cap so I could afford to overspend on the bullpen or overpay for defense. I drafted Petco as my ballpark, it seemed like a logical fit for what I was trying to do with this team.

All of my starters are 1's defensively except LF where I have a 2 (Davis). Bautista is my DH.

Here are the results so far:

interesting. clearly the strong relief of Kuo and Soriano makes a big difference.

All 1's except for 1st base. I might have had more than 97 wins if I wouldn't have benched a few of my starters for the last dozen games or so.

I did this with a 2009 team. Team was in contention all year but collapsed late and missed the playoffs.

Did it with a team this year in a Keeper League and won 105 games then got swept in the Finals by a team that I went 10-2 against. I hate HAL. SGT D

Our season finished tonight and I captured the Wild Card:

I had a rough stretch during the season but that was when I tried to substitute some players who went away from my theme (Fukudome or Pence in RF, Patterson or Gomez in LF). I put the 1's back in, and was able to regain some momentum.
