My AL Tout team

[SeaDogStat]

So far in my AL only auction, Pujols went for 56, Fielder for 51, and Felix for 47...Oy!

Hey... mine too...weird

:explode:

Getz turned into a nice buy as he is now the starting 2B and should steal some bases.

I just left him off my keeper list too .

I read that it is now between Getz and Betancourt. Both have good defense, and Betancourt may have the better bat. Personally, I like Getz because of his wheels, but I think we need to keep our eyes open.

Betancourt has better defense? As in Why Betancourt?

misread Lawr's interest in him.

Per Lawr on Mastersball.com regarding his pre Tout plan:
Alexi Ogando (SP, Rangers): First half last year he was lights out: second half he was burnt out. Well, I am thinking first that a year under his belt makes the now starter better able to pace himself, just like I am thinking the Neftali Feliz as a starter experiment will fade, and quickly (meaning Ogando's stintn the pen will be short-livbed). 14 wins and an ERA around 4.00 with 140 whiffs is fine and I think right now, with the questionable status, around $7 should close the deal.

I didn't read his pre-plan, but remember his comments & such about him throughout last year & the off-season and how he has little faith in Nathan making it through the season or Feliz staying in the rotation. He went to $9 on him

Your middle infield is ugly, but I like the rest of your team. You might be a little light on SB after Bourjos. Can you explain $10 for Ogando?

Ogando is going to be a stud swingman, IMO. Without major injury to a starter currently in the rotation, he should still get 5-7 starts plus another 60+ IP outta the bullpen. I think he will be great in that time.

I see. He is the de facto 6th SP and a ratio machine. With 60 IP, he would work as the anchor for Bodheiza's MR Cy Young strategy. He should get also the Holds that went to Uehara for those where it matters.
