This American League mock draft was held with a ten-team, non keeper league featuring standard 5×5 roto scoring (avg, r, hr, rbi, sb; w, sv, k, era, whip) in mind. Active lineups would include one player at each position (three outfielders) as well as a designated hitter, along with seven pitchers, regardless of whether they are starters or relievers. Bench players could be filled with players of any position. Daily roster changes were assumed as well as a limit of 162 games per hitting slot and 1450 innings pitched.
Surprisingly, Alfonso Soriano edged Alex Rodriguez for the first pick, but given that there are four top shortstops in the AL, the advantage of having the top performer at 2B could be an even greater edge. This was definitely a risky pick; the dividends could make it worthwhile, however. Yankees, A’s and White Sox were in high demand in the first three rounds, with Eric Chavez, Mark Mulder and Tim Hudson going back-to-back-to back and the Chicago’s Bartolo Colon, Mark Buehrle and Billy Koch going in round three. The selection of Koch also started the first run at closers, with seven being picked in the following two rounds.
The need for a designated hitter helped Frank Thomas make it to the fifth round; Josh Phelps was the next one taken in round 6. And for a truly irrelevant fact, Jeremy Giambi was drafted exactly one hundred picks after his brother, Jason. Check out the draft’s twenty-three rounds which are listed below. Hopefully, this list will help you plan for your own fantasy drafts.
