$60 million/24 team league CLOSE TO FULL - time to enter

Sorry, but the league filled late last night and drafted this morning. =(

I would love to hear comments from the managers how well their drafts went, and what the free agent pool looks like the day after.

I only missed 4 guys on my draft card, but the one major miss stung really bad. Brett Butler was my only major miss and that leaves me without a leadoff hitter. I ended up getting Alou to play CF in waivers, but I sacrificed my DH to afford him.
95% of the draft card was replaceable, Butler was NOT one of those guys.
It was because of that, that I consider it a failed auto draft even though I got most of my players. Granted it could have been worse, but the way I plan drafts, one missed player could ruin a whole draft.

Here's a link to the standings page so you could check out all the teams.

The auto draft was absolutely brutal. I ended up with 12 players from my draft card, got most of my rotation and pen, but missed on the key position players. Ozzie Smith was one of my big misses...would have liked his "D" at short.

When 600 players are taken in the auto draft, it leaves some slim pickings on the FA. Surprisingly, the relief corps was pretty well picked clean leaving the biggest void on the FA.

Ozzie Smith was my #1 pick. Likewise, Jody Reed was my #2 pick.

Gotta prioritize in a 60 mil league.

Ozzie was everybody's number one pick. I have Vina 2 and missed on him as well. 60m is the only way to do 24 team leagues in 90's. It loks like it will be fun. My team is solid at 60m (on paper).

Raines, Dykstra, O'Neil
