12 team AL only Roto 5x5 w/obp $260 keeper
I had 15 keepers and $90 to spend on 8 guys
Auction was last night and owners were spending big bucks on the CI guys with a record for $40+ guys, Kinsler $40, Pujols $45, Miggy $47, Fielder $48 and Ellsubry $46 with A-gon at $39 just missing.
Other notables: Gardner $35, A.Reed $23, Cruz $35, Tex $35, Kendrick $27, Kuroda $24, Crawford $28, Romero $30, Rivera $26, ARod $28, Dunn $24, Broxton $16, Beltre $30, King Felix $38, Napoli $28,
I waited on the CI guys and let the owners with money spend their butts off and i jumped in at the end of the bidding and got one of the best buys of the draft in Konerko. Dunn was taken after him and so was Beltre and A-rod.
I didn't go over pay for one dementional base stealers which is why I went for a 5 cat guy in Choo who is great in an OBP league. you can see Gardner went for way too much as did the others. I have a number of guys that can get me steals, just not that 40+ guy, though Weeks could surprise.
I thought mid tier starters were going for too much with Danks, Kuroda and Floyd hitting over $20 and top tier guys like Haren, Lester and Hernandez going for $35+. I took some risk there and felt I got some good value in Vargas and some low risk/good possible reward in Smyly, Noesi, Carreno and Williams. Took Pettitte with the 1st pick in reserve draft. Combined Aceves/Melancon for $16 since I had to keep Bailey (he had been extended). Also got H.Santiago in the reserve as i guess no one else was looking. Got some nice minor league keepers.

Overall, I'm pretty happy. (one owner had $40 left)
What do you guys see as weaknesses I need to focus on and how do you honestly think I did.
Thanks for all your help
