    So it is done. 15 team mixed 5x5 standard with OBP. Keepers in Bold X means extended #years

    Ca Salvador Perez $14 X1
    1B Colin Moran $1
    2B Tommy Edman $17
    SS Trevor Story $31
    3B Jose Ramirez $47 X1
    MI Ha-Seong Kim $1
    CI Seth Beer $2
    OF Starling Marte $29
    OF George Springer $26
    OF Kyle Tucker $20 X1
    OF David Peralta $1
    OF Andrew Vaughn $4
    Ut Kole Calhoun $2
    Ut Abraham Toro-Hernandez $1

    Res: Lux $4, Alfaro $1, Beaty $1

    I went in with the least amount of money to spend and keeping a lot of steals--I tried to drive up all speed guys left and ended up getting Story and Edman, I should cruch the speed category and potentially be able to move some for need later--though this isn;t a big trading league as there are no picks to trade and only a 3 man minors. Still speed is so sexy, ya know!

    Spending so much on my offense left me little for my pitching, but I think I'm ok.

    Starters order of cost:

    Yu Darvish $23
    Marcus Stroman $8
    Luis Castillo $7
    Cal Quantrill $5
    Josiah Gray $2
    Nick Martinez $1
    Merril Kelly $1
    Miles Mikolas $1
    Brad Keller $1
    Adbert Alzolay $1

    I also have Cavalli, Lodolo and George Kirby in my minors--any or all of them could contribute this season.

    Saves will be thin, but I'm a believer that they can be FAABd if you are diligent.

    Ryan Pressly $11 X1
    Dinelson Lamet $2
    Ken Giles $2

    Both Giles and Lamet have a shot at saves, Pressly (barring injury) should get enough to keep me in the middle of things.

    Overall--I love my offense, lost of speed, enough power and solid OBP, counting stats should be good. I know I have a few guys with AB issues, but hopefully a couple can get 300-400 ABs of solid stats.

    Pitching will need to hit on all cylinders and injured guys return soon rather than later. Gotta fix saves, but I usually can do that--though this years owners seem to be thinking the same thing as most handcuffs, potential save guys were snathced up.

    Any input is appreciated and thanks in advance!

          You definitely have the speed. My concern with the offense is that in this size league you might have trouble keeping up with the counting stats due to lack of ABs. Moran, Kim, Beer, Peralta, Vaughn, Toro (Lux/Beaty on the bench) are guys I'm concerned about seeing more than ~400 and the R/RBI columns are likely going to suffer.

          You may be best off trading some of that excess speed to fill in other areas. (and if so I know a team you might trade with)

            I agree, and now with Vaughn getting squeezed. Now if you still had CJ.....
