Team 8 has Cano, Reyes, and Weaver...
Let's do something a little different for him. He's got avg covered for now and needs power. Lets take away his thoughts of middle infield for the rest of the draft and give him Dan Uggla.

Team 7 - A. Gon - Holliday -CC Sabathia

add to Team 7 BJ Upton, OF, TB

[Atlas]

I smell some pitchers coming up

[Glenneration X]

Team 6 - Lawrie

[rockitsauce]

The hard part is making sure you've got the right previously picked guys

I believe team 5 has Tulo at SS, Wright at 3B, and Pence at OF. To this group which has a decent blend of power & speed I think now is the time to grab an upper tier Catcher. At this point in the draft I don't think you can wrong w/ either Posey or McCann. Since it's late Jan. let's go w/ McCann (Posey has more to prove in ST)

[Atlas]

Shows you what I know.
I thought for sure that a pitcher would have been added to each of the last 2 teams.

Team 4....Bautista, Hamilton, Lincecum

...and at 4.12, Alex Gordon, OF, KC

[DOUGHBOYS]

Pujols, Stanton, and Michael Young....
Lets give this team a 4 cat ace to build on, even though he's not the ace of his own team, Dan Haren.
Pure coincidence that the last two guys I drafted were named Dan.

[MadCow Sez]

Lets add a second top line SP to team 2

4:14 Zack Greinke

[Spartacus]

I think I'll go 'Arnold Ziffel' here and take the entire turn here for team 1.

Kemp-Sabathia-Sandoval-Cliff Lee at 4-15 and Aramis Ramirez at 5-1

[DOUGHBOYS]

I can picture an autographed, framed 8x10 on Lindy's wall!

[rockitsauce]

As long as his legal trouble is behind him I think this fella is gold here at the start of rd 5, gut feeling is next yr he goes inside 2 rd's.........SS STARLIN CASTRO

[Atlas]

Now this is where it gets a little tricky.
Had I drafted M. Young (Team3) I would have had some kind of plan down the draft line as where I was going to play him
(at least initially) and had a plan for the other positions.

I'm going to go to the OF...
Team 3 Shin-Soo Choo 5.3

[Ando]

5.4 - Jimmy Rollins, SS, PHI

[pilots]

Team 5- Tulo -Wright -Pence-McCann

add SP I. Kennedy, Ari

[Navel Lint]

Ok. Team 6 has Ellsbury - McCutcheon - Braun - Lawrie


I'm going to add Jonathon Papelbon. That's right, round 5 I'm banging out the first closer. Closers might not go this high in a 50 round slow draft, but in the Main Event you can expect 1 or more to go in this round.

Team 7 - Round 5, I like Stephen Strasburg

[BK METS]

Also, it appears Sabathia was posted twice in the reprint at the top of the page.. Team 7 should have Carlos Santana not CC. Thus Strasburg is even more warranted.

[Head 2 Head]

Team 8 -Cano -Reyes -Weaver-Dan Uggla will add Craig Kimbrel

[Ando]

Team 9

Fielder - Kinsler - RZimm - CHamels

and at 5.9 - Brett Gardner, OF, NYY

[pilots]

Team 10 - Votto -Beltre -Andrus-Josh Becket

add 5.10 Morse, OF/1B, Wsh

[Atlas]

Also, it appears Sabathia was posted twice in the reprint at the top of the page.. Team 7 should have Carlos Santana not CC. Thus Strasburg is even more warranted.

Got it. Thanks

[Atlas]

Team 11 needs a pitcher

Longoria -Texiera -Bruce-Asdrubal Cabrera-- 5.11-CJ Wilson
