03.23.13 | I mean I feel good about my draft. Having such a stud infield I feel like will overcome not having a Braun/Hamilton/Bautista in the outfield. Tulowitzki and Zimmerman are healthy so they should be going ham. All I feel I need to be happy is a another top notch pitcher. For relief or starting. |

03.23.13 | I like tulo this year; just got him at pick 19 in my $100 league. You might be lacking power though, man |
BallsToTheWall
03.23.13 | Power, nah. It's just not fully established. Look, Wilson hit 28 jacks last year, Goldschmidt's going to hit 30 +, Zimmerman's going to give me 30+ and my second base core will give me power. I know I dont have pretty names and I know some of these guys are coming back from injuries, rookie years,etc but this could be a power hitting team.
Especially is Moustakas, Hosmer, Rosario and Upton live up to their expectations. |
BallsToTheWall
03.23.13 | Oh and Morse is giving me 25+. |

03.23.13 | *Wilin Rosario |
BallsToTheWall
03.23.13 | Thank you baby. 28 jacks is a phenominal feat for a catcher, see you later Napoli and his 270 average wasn't bad either. His RBI's, runs scored and power outage will be significant this year, especially with Tulo back. Personally I think he's a steal. |
Yazz_Flute
03.23.13 | He only did it in like 400-something at-bats also, which is impressive in spite of the fact that he plays in Coors field. |
BallsToTheWall
03.23.13 | Agreed hard and with Tulo's presence the Rockies should have a even better year. And LaRoche is a underrated beast. I expect him to replicate his 30/100 stats since Washington has developed so nicely. |
Yazz_Flute
03.23.13 | I was disappointed when the Nats got rid of Morse but Laroche has pretty much been as consistent a hitter as they come for the past 6-7 years. |
DANcore
03.23.13 | You do have that potential, for sure. Im an AZ fan, and goldschmidt will be huge this year. I like rosario, but I'll usually wait a couple rounds and take salvy perez for the high average. |
DANcore
03.23.13 | Agreed on laroche. Drafted him today also |
BallsToTheWall
03.23.13 | What I want is a 30+ homer 15+ stolen base season from Goldy. More than possible. Yeah, I picked Morse up in the 15th or 16th round. He should put up numbers with Seager.
My only OF worry is Austin Jackson. He's good but will he be enough for me to win? Maybe Victor's presence back in the lineup will spike more rbi opportunites, |
DANcore
03.23.13 | Jackson hits leadoff. He'll get you runs, but not many rbi |
BallsToTheWall
03.23.13 | Oh man, I thought he was batting somewhere around the bottom 3 Hmm...Upton and Morse are solid but Jackson and Gomez might not be. I might need to pull a trade soon. |

03.23.13 | League details?
Also, how in the world can you honestly expect 30+ HR from Zimmerman? He's done that exactly once, four years ago. Plan on 20, be happy with 25. |
BallsToTheWall
03.23.13 | 10 man league. He was hurt last year and he's healthy now. 30 isn't unreasonable. |
tvol
03.23.13 | ... Said every Zimmerman owner since 2009 |
DANcore
03.23.13 | Try to trade speed for power, jackson for mark trumbo, or something like that |
BallsToTheWall
03.23.13 | I just hope Hosmer delivers. |
tvol
03.23.13 | ESPN league? Trying to figure out why you have so many offensive backups. |
BallsToTheWall
03.23.13 | Yahoo. I drafted way too many offensive and not enough pitching. |
tvol
03.23.13 | I agree with that assessment. |
BallsToTheWall
03.23.13 | Pitching wont be a problem, I have enough to barter with. I wonder if I should drop Gomez or Seager for Jurickson Profar. Could be too premature to jump right in the Profar hype train. |
DANcore
03.23.13 | Yeah, dont do that |
BallsToTheWall
03.23.13 | Agreed. |
londoncalling457
03.23.13 | hell yeah chase utley, hope he can stay healthy and finally get back to shredding |
BallsToTheWall
03.23.13 | Agreed. That's what im banking on. |
