1. M. Cabrera
2. T. Lincuum
3. A. Lind
4. R. Cano
5. N. Markakis
6. Johan Santana
7. D. Lee

This league has 1 catcher, 2 DH slots and daily moves. The league has been around since ~1987! What do you think of the draft? Thanks.

hard to ultimately know how your team stands without seeing all the other squads, but, in general it looks like a nice squad.

you are a tad light on speed, and i would give up someone to grab an extra catcher and have him stashed. i only see bengie, who is ok as a starter, and i would be surprised if he catches more than 120 games.

more important, catchers are always just a fout ball away from a busted finger and a month on the dl, and your league should be shallow enough to have pudge or someone on the reserve list you can pop in be there such an emergency.

better to have such a guy stashed than have to forage after the fact.
