Welcome Everybody 8-)

[keyzick]

Well, I THINK I like my team. 10th in waivers, though, with a definite hole to fill, so we'll have to see how that goes. I've made my top 6 waiver choices for that one position, hoping at least one of these guys make it to me!

A lot of PNC's out there, seems like people are going back to the strategy from a couple years back.

[Jeepdriver]

This is my first time in PNC so we'll see how it goes. Normally I'm a HR-type Mgr not a little ball Mgr.

I was pretty pleased as well with the draft, and so should I being last in waivers. And like you Keyzick I have one noticeable hole, too.

Also, as mentioned in league mail I have two 2B if someone has a need for one. :wink:

A busy mini-frenzy post waivers.

Well, I only needed a 1B on offense. There were 3 good ones (Fielder, Helton and Lee). I put claims in on all 3 (yes I knew for sure Fielder would be gone) but all three were gobbled up before it got to me. :(

[keyzick]

I needed a DH, and had 6 players targeted to take that spot, and place them as my first 6 waiver choices (I thought!)....5 of them got picked ahead of me: Braun, Helton, D. Lee, Fielder and 1 other I can't remember, BUT I also had Vlad targeted, who went AFTER me in the second round. :shock:

I guess I must have screwed up and put him at the bottom of my list, cause I also put in to upgrade my catcher, which I got instead.

Sux I can't verify, and I didn't print a copy of my order either. Oh well, DH is an easy one to replace, especially when you have a lot of money to create an insane platoon.

I can't tell if I have a good team or a bad team though, since $100M seems to buy an awful lot.

[Jeepdriver]

Had to settle on Adrian Gonzalez at 1B. Didn't want to, but it being $100M almost had to with what was out there. An $80M league I might have put together a decent low cost platoon, but here you don't want to leave $$ on the table so had to go with Adrian.

My most expensive platoon is Grandy/Victorino in CF. :shock:

Mine is Ludwick/Winn in CF...

[Jeepdriver]

I'm having a devil of a time trying to win on the road. I've had a stretch of like 12 of 15 on the road and my team is ready for some home cooking.

I was not aware that one can use RP's as a starter. Troy Percival just started against me and pitched 7 innings and won. I guess fatigue rules aren't used.
That is an interesting thing to know.
