This was my first slow draft and first time playing in the NFBC. I under estimated how fast pitching would go but I feel like I did good enough to mix and match as the season goes along. Guess we'll see. Any comments greatly appreciated

Re: NFBC Slow Draft - How did I do?
Honestly? You're not going to like this....
To mix and match you still need a solid foundation - which you don't have. I just don't see how the staff can compete.
I prefer more bats -- depth is short since you took a couple shots on players that may not see a single at bat this year and only took 24 hitters.
These are as much about attrition so anything can happen. I just don't like the construct nor darts at Olivera and Owens.

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: NFBC Slow Draft - How did I do?
Respect your opinion Todd hopefully your wrong. I do agree my SP base is weak. My plan is to pick my spots with my 4/5 SP and start RP when they have poor matchups. I just need to make sure I watch my total innings. As for my hitting if it stays healthy I like it a lot when I look around at some of the other teams it's def in the top 5. I really like a few of the darts I threw at H Olivera I think once he signs he'll start and will be great depth. H Owens was a 3rd to last pick I don't expect much. I preferred to grab 4/5 SP at the end to help me mix and match. Thanks again for the comment hopefully your wrong lol

For the first two weeks (until Vogt gets 10 games behind the plate) you have only one starting catcher - yes Caleb Joseph might be playable if Wieters can't catch immediately.
The rest of your hitting should be fine especially IF Tomas a) hits and b) plays 3B
The pitching will be a guessing game each week

Streaming 4 and 5 is great -- but you don't have the foundation of a 1-3 (Ross is a 2/3). The closers don't have the K's to make up for that.
And, for the record, I hope I'm wrong too!
