Starting Lineup: C, 1B, 2B, 3B, SS, 4 OF, 7P, 2U and 4 bench spots. 12 teams, CBS scoring.
1.07 - Aaron Judge - OFs go fast in our league and I like Judge's ceiling, passed on safer options like Freddie Freeman but 1B is deep and OF is not.
2.06 - Jose Ramirez - definitely slid because of 3B depth this year, but I had no problem taking the top 3B here
3.07 - Framber Valdez - we start 7 pitchers, so I always llike to draft an anchor...maybe a little early here, but I like Framber to have a bounce back year
4.06 - Kyle Schwarber - definitely a points league guy, slid a little given the rate at which OFs were going.
5.07 - Zach Eflin - like Framber, felt like a reach and could be buying high on Eflin but you'll see that I just continue to stack pitching in this format
6.06 - Eury Perez - Tantalizing upside too much to pass up, just hoping for health
7.07 - Xander Bogaerts - Now that he's 2B eligible I loved the value here, had a fair amount of risk up to this point so nice to get a guy I can count on
8.06 - Christian Walker - Meh, probably my least favorite pick. Was at the end of a 1B tier, so went for it
9.07 - Sonny Gray - Loved the pick at the time but his hammy is already acting up, we'll see but I'm hoping he's an anchor for my risky pitching staff
10.06 - Bailey Ober - Love this pick too. Tabbed as a sleeper by many and has looked great in spring.
11.07 - Cristian Javier - Another Astro I'm hoping for a bounceback year, I like the value here
12.06 - Gavin Williams - A sleeper SP I had my eye on and when he looked good early on in spring I had him targeted around here...maybe a little early
13.07 - Jorge Soler - Super thrilled with this big bat, SF not a hitters park but I don't care...this guy can mash anywhere
14.06 - Encarnacion Strand - This is why I don't feel great about the Walker pick, CES is one of my top sleepers for the year...mashing in spring and looks locked into the Reds starting lineup.
15.07 - Paul Skenes - electric stuff hitting 102 on the gun already, just hoping he gets called up in June and not in September
16.06 - AJ Puk - Another sleeper/buzz SP, I like how he's looked this spring and worth a dart throw for the upside
17.07 - Jake Burger - Strong exit velo and barrels metrics, could hit 45 out...or could be a bust...I like the risk/reward and one of my favorite sleepers
18.06 - Mitch Garver - One of my favorite Catcher sleepers, although there are many. I like that he's catcher eligible but will be hitting cleanup as a DH most days.
19.07 - Trevor Bauer - I have to believe he's going to get picked up and the pickings are getting slim this late, will just drop him in a month if he doesn't get picked up
20.06 - Seth Lugo - Just wanted a safe, reliable guy to add to depth, pickings were slim...SP #112 I beleive.
21.07 - Kris Bryant - Again, waited a long time to draft OF as I like to stream for OF at the fourth spot.
22.06 - Need a 2B, looking at Julie or Polanco or Lowe...
