Tough auction in our AL 5x5 12-team league. Definitely paid full price regularly (and more than full price on occasion). My keepers were very strong coming into the auction, so still have a shot. Bottom line I really struggled with fiscal discipline.
I would really appreciate your suggestions on an action plan (focus trade efforts on acquiring pitching? Trade to balance the offense / reduce stars and scrubs?). Thanks in advance. Keepers marked with asterisks, but easy to pick out by salary. Here is the team:
C - Carlos Perez 1
C - Tony Sanchez 1
1B - Carlos Santana 25
2B - Rougned Odor 13/final*
SS - Tim Anderson 8*
3B - Yunel Escobar 2
MI - Robinson Cano 38
CI - Steve Pearce 6
OF - Mookie Betts 18*
OF - JD Martinez 20*
OF - Mark Trumbo 22*
OF - Melky Cabrera 17
OF - Tyler O'Neill 2 (8 when called up) - will replace via FAAB
DH/UT - Jason Kipnis 22
P - Edwin Diaz 11*
P - Aaron's Sanchez 7/final*
P - Chris Sale 36
P - Kendall Graveman 2
P - Mike Fiers 2
P - Jose De Leon 5 - will replace with FAAB
P - Luke Gregerson 1
P - Joe Kelly 1
P - Liam Hendriks 1
I also have Francis Martes in a minor league slot (will be $5 when called up).
