So All Your Base Are Belong to Rios participated in a fantasy baseball draft today with 13 other Jays fans/bloggers from all over the place and I think it went alright. There wasn't really anything noteworthy about the draft (no crazy picks off the charts...) but it was a different experience for me in that the format was unlike any fantasy draft I've participated in before.
The following twists were in this fantasy league: Batting average was thrown out, and we're using OBP and SLG as two categories, to make it 6X6 we are also using quality starts as a stat.
I'm used to the conventional categories. Also, it's a head to head, which I'm not familiar with either. I decided that I wanted to get good established closers. And I accomplished that. I suppose we'll see if that was smart or not. In any event, here's our squad:
Hitting
C - Ramon Hernandez
1B - Carlos Delgado
2B - Brian Roberts
SS - JJ Hardy
3B - David Wright
LF - Hideki Matsui
CF - Rick Ankiel
RF - Matt Kemp
Utility - Jeremy Hermida
Bench - Adam Jones
Pitching
SP Brandon Webb
SP Felix Hernandez
SP Daisuke Matsuzaka
RP JJ Putz
RP Jonathan Papelbon
P Mariano Rivera
P Mark Buerhle
P Andrew Miller
Bench - Scott Olsen
My favourite picks are Dice-K (taken 88th), King Felix (81st) and Kemp (144th). I'll update anything noteworthy that happens throughout the year.
We got a Team

Not to come off as all high and mighty but those are pretty bad picks - well the hitting department anyway. I wouldn't draft any of them aside from Wright.
Pitchers are pretty good, but could've done better imho.
Still bitter you got Mariano Rivera one pick before I was going to take him.
Our entire pitching strategy went up in flames...it could be a long summer.
I'm ready to guarantee a last place finish for my team
I did like your Dice-K pick, I was planning on selecting him that same round. Felix burned me the last two seasons and I just decided to go elsewhere this time. By the way, check out our exclusive Casey Janssen interview just posted today at Bluebird Banter!
oh shit, I was supposed to do this. I'll just be a groupie for one of the teams.
