NL only - my team

#1 Post by alleyoops »

We had our auction tonight in our NL-only 5x5 keeper league. Here's my team, with some thoughts. Feel free to comment, or ignore.

c - Saltalamacchia 10, Gosewisch 1
1b - Belt 24
3b - Frazier 20 (k), Wright 25
2b - Utley 14
ss - Owings 16, Galvis 1
of - Bruce 28, Byrd 11 (k), Cuddyer (15), M.Upton (2), Gomes (2), Mclouth 1

sp - Kershaw 43 (k), Teheran 13 (k), deGrom 10 (k), Despaigne 1, Locke 1
rp - FRodriguez 6 (k), Mejia 10, Familia 1, EMarshall 1

We could keep up to 6 players, at a $5 bump from last year's salary. My keeper list was probably average, at best. I focused on hitting early, as I had kept strong starting pitching. Guys were going pretty consistent with inflation early. I bought some power early, paying slightly inflated prices. Speed was hard to come by, and I think I'm short there. I should be competitive in the power categories, and my pitching should be pretty good, although I'll have to find a good starter after the top 3.

My biggest "second thought" was buying Utley fairly late, as I didn't have enough $ left to get some guys who I wanted. Locke was a poor choice - it was an auto-nom after I timed out.
