We are through 21 of 28 rounds, so the meat and potatoes of my team is set. I'm doing this because I want to see how I've done thus far and also to ask advice on what I should target in these last 9 rounds to help out my weak spots. I'm learning a lot by doing this draft and also realizing there is a lot more that goes into fantasy baseball than fantasy football.

Thanks in advance guys.

 

[Oh Yes!]

closers? Think Heath bell, capps...

I have Soria and Street thus far. Bell and Capps are long gone.

Manny Corpas as a Street handcuff. Jason Motte may be worth a flyer if he's available.It's not a bad team. I'd like to have more power in the OF slots but there's not a lot you can do about that now.

I think you waited a tad too long to get a catcher. I don't love your 3B situation or your OF. Your pitching could be really solid if you get another decent closer.

Yeah, looking back, maybe I go OF where I took Santana, but all of the big boppers were gone at that point. Also, I got Santana as the 2nd SP off the board (Lincecum) and then a string a SP went before my next pick (CC, Hamels, Webb, Halladay, Haren, Oswalt).I'm pretty high on Markakis. I'm also hoping my IF power makes up for my OF.

Yeah, about that....I got sniped 3 separate times on taking a catcher. I'd have 2 guys I'd want and they'd get taken right before my pick. Instead of reaching, I said "I'll take one from my next tier at my next pick". Then boom, it'd happen again.I do feel C is a weakness at the moment, but I really like Snyder's potential. To get a C that has 20 HR potential and had a near .350 OBP last year in the 19th, I thought was pretty good.ETA: I had Encarnacion in my sights where I took Beltre, but he was taken 3 spots before my pick. I just hope Beltre has another "contract year" like he did before he signed with Seattle. *sigh*

Bump.

I think your team is pretty typical. You clearly did ok early getting a few big hitters, and then filled out your roster with a combo of steady performers and guys where you like the upside (such as Reynolds/Snyder). Thats pretty much the makeup of a regular's fantasy team IMO.
