Quick Analysis:
- Betts/Cole was the plan going in. I budgetted $50 for Betts and $30 for Cole and went $2 over on the combo.
- Had to fight mjl for Gallo but I won this time
- Somewhat similar to draft, I went for multi-position eligible players where possible since we have a short bench. I got plenty of OFers, that's for sure.
- OF is a strength on this team, opposite of my draft team
- My favorite buys: Mancini for $1 -- I'm not sure why that happened, he was the top player on my board when I nominated him but no one else bid. I think it's pretty reasonable to expect closer to $10 of value than $1. Musgrove for $3 - I think he's a ~$8-10 pitcher. Polanco for $3 - I think he's underpriced everywhere.
- Mistakes: I overpaid for Robles - I think he's a $15-$18 guy, not $21 and I don't like spending that much on young players with risk. Hosmer for $11 is okay I guess but I would have much rather waited and spent $9 on Ian Desmond.
- Guys I missed out on - $9 Desmond as I mentioned, $11 McCutchen (mjl), $5 Braun (Byron Cox), $2 Cron, $1 Strickland, $3 Josh Bell, $4 Schoop. Several of those guys went late after the auction turned from overpriced to underpriced. I went in and spent my money just a bit too early, I have to learn to be slighly more patient (without waiting too long and leaving money on the table)
