kgbaseball Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 No utility? If there is, I hope Hall is occupying it. Other than that, I'd consider using Kinsler as your everyday 2b. You drafted well in terms of offensive depth, as you have at least 1 backup for every position. However, you desperately need another closer, as Turnbow won't be the closer this year unless Cordero is hurt. You've got plenty of options as trade bait. This is definitely one of the most solid fantasy teams I've seen yet. Just find another closer (scour the FA pool for Torres, Dotel, Broxton, etc.) and see what you can find.

Yes, I wasn't paying attention, Hall is actually in the Utility spot...As far as closers...It was tough to find one as I had to wait 22 players in between picks and I actually had to take Turnbow in the 12th round, that's how fast closers went in this draft...But another closer is definitely something I will be trying to trade for. Thanks for the comments by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duckdodger215 Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 SP should be ok. RP is pathetic, tho. Why did you not pick up Otsuka? Seems like that should be a given that you should take him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like that should be a given that you should take him. I thought Otsuka was already taken, turns out he wasn't, so I requested to drop Turnbow and pick Otsuka up. By the way, in the league, there was a guy that drafted the entire Tigers team. And this is a H2H league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kgbaseball Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Trust me, usually every year I have at least 1 team like that, and it's never worked. Never works for fantasy basketball either. Well, hopefully you get Otsuka. I still think you'll need another closer. While you should get every potential save from the Rangers if you get Otsuka, I don't think that'll be enough to win the category consistently.

angryrat Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Just to let you know some information on Otsuka.... Apparently I've been "told" by several EAmod's folks that he will not be closing games this season. Much to my dismay after drafting him (late, but drafting none the less).

UncleMo Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 He can close, it is just that he will not close this year because potentially there is a better closer in Gagne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
