Boxscore league, 15-team mixed league. 2010 was my first year, finished 4th. I'd like to do better, but the competition looks extremely tough this year...some superb keeper lists.
This is the league with Jason, Byron, B-Fly, Doig, RC, Brad, etc.
Here's what I'm thinking of keeping: ("B" means 2nd year, "C" means 3rd)
SS Alexi Casilla $1B
OF Cameron Maybin $1B
OF Austin Jackson $3B
OF Corey Hart $4B
OF Nick Swisher $6B
OF Matt Holliday $33B
P Ian Kennedy $2B
P Brett Myers $5B
CL Joel Hanrahan $1B
CL Andrew Bailey $3B
This would be 10 guys (the max number of keepers) for $59.
I also have as possibles:
Koji Uehara $1B (probably keep if he gets the closer job)
Brandon League $1B
David Murphy $5B
Alcides Escobar $10B
Everybody else is worse.
Questions:
1. Are these the right ten to keep?
2. If Uehara gets the closer job, do I keep him? Instead of whom?
3. Does this look like a keeper list that has a chance to compete?
I'd have $201 to spend. Based upon my projected freeze lists for the league, inflation will be right at 30%, assuming there aren't a ton of players extended.
If I do "average" at the auction, I'd add about $140 in value to my team ($201 x 70%). Of course, in order to be competitive, I'll need to do far better than that.
Obviously I have filled up my outfield, but it appears that virtually all the decent outfielders will be kept...the top end will be the Shane Victorino caliber players. Not bad guys, but they will likely be very high.
So, any comment or criticism would be appreciated.
