I really do like my team out of the gate. Offensively I have loads of power and guys who will drive in runs and a good amount of speed and guys who will score runs. The only glaring weakness is I have a lot of guys who are batting average liabilities. As far as pitching goes, I have some real power arms for my starters and didn't pay much at all for saves and still ended up with three decent closers.

The only changes I would want to make right away would be to upgrade at the SS position and try to get another outfielder.

I love your pitching. I agree with what you say about everyone liking their team, I myself love mine but I had to reach for some players for fear of some people taking them.

You sniped both Gordon and Bonifacio away from me just as I was about to take them. The round where you took Bonifacio was the worst ever since he was the third SS in a run of three and the one I wanted most.

Nice team name too. At least you have Duda on your team since I think it is incredibly tacky to have a team name based on a particular player when you don't even have them on your roster. Yes, I am talking to a few of you!

Also, let's try to get those funds paid up as soon as possible so it is one less thing we all have to worry about later. Thanks, guys.

Well I had to change my name since someone took Valverde away!

I used "Highway To Hellsbury" last year since I had Jacoby on my team.

I'm feeling pretty good about my team. I absolutely hate drafting in the 10 spot. However it worked out decently. I made some dice rolls on players like Dunn and Crawford but if they return to form then I got hellacious deals on them. My pitching staff should do pretty well and I got great value on two dominating set up men turned closers in Marshall and Balfour. Should be an interesting year for sure.

Looks like Bailey will be out for awhile with that thumb, 55.

One roster spot open.

Here's how we'll roll into the beginning of the season tomorrow. A couple of nagging injuries, but that's to be expected. I go between really liking my team and not being too excited about it - who knows, lol. I think we'll hit pretty well and are pretty balanced on that end. If anything is going to be my downfall, it will be pitching. After my first 3 guys, I'm not really all that excited about any of it. Hoping for bounceback years for the homer picks (although I didn't think I reached for either of them - maybe should have gone with Montero instead of Mauer). I like the flexibility of Daniel Murphy who I can plug into 5 spots and get average.

Made my payment this morning. Good luck fellas!!!!

Thanks again 55
