We're in the frenzy stage now -- here's the league: https://365.strat-o-matic.com/league/458981

cheap platoons rule the day. personally, I can't stand them.

MaxPower dropped Pedro Martinez... it's a first for me...

Surprises... surprises !!!

I just checked... Pedro went with the last choice of round 14... 168th overall...

And no one's picked him up...

Halfway through the draft I saw Pedro and Kershaw still sitting out there and heard the siren song of a 5-man rotation, despite having drafted Maddux first overall. So I took them back to back to keep my options open. I even offered Maddux to several teams after the draft. Now I'm glad that no one accepted though, I've decided to stick with a Maddux-led 4-man. Parity between 4- and 5-man options is tricky for me to navigate sometimes!

Should we set up a poll as to who might win? Chaberial, you've done mighty fine work here, so can you do this?

My team sucks, by the way. One of the worst I've had in a long time. Terrible!
