This is a very different league. Lineups are weekly and weekly scoring is based on relative place among the 14 teams so the best score of the week gets a 13 and the worst a zero. For bridge players, this sounds familiar and it should as multiple life masters are in this league. This is the second of three free agent drafts. The final one is August 20
The Hitting Category [yes, singular] is Runs&RBI
The Pitching category is Wins
Questions:
We need a catcher. The options will be Jesus Montero, Sal Perez, Yas Grandal & Wilin Rosario. Can people please rank these guys?
Rank the following OFs - Alex Rios, Carlos Quentin, John Jay & Tyler Colvin, Justin Rugganio
If possible, list the top 4-5 pitchers from the following group
Cashner, Andrew
Duensing, Brian
Quintana, Jose
Millwood, Kevin
Noesi, Hector
Richards, Garrett
Morales, Franklin
Young, Chris
Blackley, Travis

Catchers are like prostate exams -- comes a time where you can't put if off any longer, so you may as well get it over with and take it up the butt - The Forum Funklord

You know you have to seek therapy when you see one of your pitchers had a bad night and it takes you 15 minutes to find the team you have him on. - The Forum Funklord

Re: several decisions - all thoughts appreciated
the "WHAT" is just WINS.
Right now Blanton is far superior to Kershaw in this format. Pundants say never chase wins but if that is the only category you chase it. The simple strategy is to start any and all 2-start pitchers and then fill-in with 1-start stuids [Kershaw is our only one] followed by best match-ups available.
