I’m holding off on another Thursday Theriots for the time being. Too much going on in life between adding a second job and prepping for my auction draft.
I did make a few big decisions the last couple days about my other fantasy team though.
The rules in this league are that if the player is 25 or younger when drafted or picked up on waivers, he can be a keeper for life. Each keeper takes pick from the middle of the draft, so everyone still has a chance at a first rounder every year.
Keepers:
Buster Posey
Eric Hosmer
Howie Kendrick
Will Middlebrooks – Wary of him this year, but worth a wait-and-see approach
Hanley Ramirez
Andrew McCutchen
Mike Trout
Matt Wieters
Jered Weaver
Stephen Strasburg – Who I originally drafted while he was still in college. Not allowed anymore in this league.
Wade Miley
Yovani Gallardo
Brett Anderson
Trevor Bauer
Chris Tillman – I traded Danny Hultzen to my brother to get him. Has the potential to do something special this year I think.
Dropped:
Jacob Turner – Has never lived up to the hype. I’m done with him.
I have 11 picks to make now. Outfielders and perhaps a SS will be priorities, along with SP depth. Relievers will come late.
What do you think? Did I make the right calls?
