Worst moves - decided to draft oliver perez (was planning to draft Liriano in the very next round, and he got taken before I got to him).
Dropped Bonderman before the season started, thinking he would be mediocre.
Fortunately, I dropped him for Dye.
Unfortunately, I dropped Dye for Wigginton before he got hot....
I'm likely going to be in 2nd or 3rd this season, and that move for Dye would have looked brilliant, b/c I would have locked up first if I had kept him. *sigh*
I dropped Bonderman too, but oh well. At the time it didn't seem all that bad, I had high hopes for Escobar who didn't really disapoint.
I traded him at the right time for Fuentes (in a league of 12 where two teams litteraly have about 60% of the closers in the mlb)
My pitching staff stayed, I didn't have a strong pitching draft I was fortunate to get players like Arroyo,Escobar, and Penny all from the FA.
The only ones I have from the draft
Jake Peavy
Joe Nathan
Scott Kazmir
I drafted but dropped/traded then later aqquired agian
Guardado (traded for john patterson)
Ervin Santana (I dropped, then somone picked him up later in the season, I then picked him up when he dropped him)
I came in as a total newbie, I overestimated power, and might have built a team that is better suited for the real world then fantasy (BB FTW)
I did too many moves before the season started like dropping bonderman, but I didn't see him having this type of year.
