I joined a public league on Yahoo.............the commissioner eventually caved to my wishes to play this 10 teamer as a $10 winner take all...............my strategy for a 10 team 5 X 5 (23 active players, standard and 5 man bench)..............was to grab value, value, value, especially in hitting........by the way, this is my first weekly lineup league, so I was kind of excited for the format.
Anyway, here it goes, with comments.............
Pepsi Double 1. (8) Ryan Howard 2. (13) Chase Utley 3. (28) Brian Roberts 4. (33) Álex Rodríguez 5. (48) Roy Halladay 6. (53) Chipper Jones 7. (68) Josh Beckett 8. (73) Jay Bruce 9. (88) Adam Dunn 10. (93) J.J. Hardy 11. (108) Joey Votto 12. (113) Chris Iannetta 13. (128) Chris Young 14. (133) Brian Fuentes 15. (148) Nelson Cruz 16. (153) Josh Johnson 17. (168) Frank Francisco 18. (173) Justin Upton 19. (188) Jason Motte 20. (193) Heath Bell 21. (208) Chris Carpenter 22. (213) Cameron Maybin 23. (228) Carlos Gómez 24. (233) Joel Hanrahan 25. (248) Ubaldo Jiménez 26. (253) Felipe López 27. (268) Brandon Inge 28. (273) J.J. Putz
This was the first league that I secured both Utley and Howard........actually, of my first 5 picks, I only have Roberts in another league...........Chipper is a staple of my teams,...........so is Dunn, Votto and Bruce.........I went Iannetta in the 12th to grab a Colorado catcher with some power potential..........I started taking closers in round 13, later than normal but I figured to grab a bunch.........grabbed Cruz in 14 just to have him, I have drafted a lot of teams and hadn't gotten him once.............the rest of the draft is pretty standard for me except for Inge in round 27, he has catcher eligibility, so I figured I could get some additional counting stats because he'll play everyday.
All in all, I felt that I had a nice draft and can't wait until ARod comes off the DL to get my team into full swing.
