[quote:5d638d787a]I like my draft, except the following players seem to have been STOLEN from me right before I pick them: Lapointe, Upshaw, Braggs, Diaz, and the Metrodome [/quote:5d638d787a]
Sean, if missing out on the guys in that studly group is your biggest problem, I think you're in good shape, my man.
So far, I can't complain. I went with some favorites of mine in certain spots (since it is a keeper league) so I definitely didn't always draft the "best available player." Taking E. Davis in round one cost me a shot at Guerrero. I probably took Larkin earlier than he should've gone also....but I wanted to make sure I had him. I'm a little concerned about my top 5 SPs (Reuschel, Drabek, Key, Ruthven and Pastore), but I'm happy with the depth I have behind them (Hough, Bannister, Dotson Keough and Mathews). I'm also VERY happy with some of the "cheapies" I got in Fletcher, Carmelo, Bailor, Almon and Browne.
The next few rounds should be fascinating. We're starting to scrape the bottom of the barrel :) :P
