Would appreciate hearing your recommended auction strategy given my circumstances:
NL 5x5 keeper league
Strong keepers; $155 of $260 remaining
* 4 hitters - three of top 15 rated hitters in Freeman, Harris, CJ Abrams plus Lane Thomas
* 2 top SP in Strider and Webb;
* Solid closer (Phillips)
Lots of top talent available
* Acuna, Ohtani, Betts, Olson, Trea, Tatis, Riley, Albies, etc
Owners are knowledgeable so pricing is always efficient (no real “bargains” except endgame and maybe a $1-2 discount on most expensive guys vs full inflation prices).
So, if it’s mostly efficient, would you:
1) Spend $ where talent is thin (2B, 1B)?
2) Spread the risk, avoid top guys, and accumulate counting stats
3) Buy a top guy like Ohtani, Acuna, Yamamoto because of potential “discount”?
4) Other?
This is a 20-year old league and I have my thoughts / style. But would enjoy hearing other takes. Thanks a lot!
