5x5 10-team Category Targets: Sportline

[d18Mike]

Guys -- sorry if this is out there somewhere but I couldn't find it in search ... playing in a "for fun" Sportsline 5x5 10-team at work and wondering if anyone who plays (or has played) in these leagues has an idea of how many HRs, SBs and Ks and Ss it takes to win or be competitive in these Leagues. Like to go into the Draft with a general sense of the targets? Thanks in advance!

this guy definitely deserved to have his own blog site.

I play in a 10-team NL-Only League and here are last year's standings. Keep in mind that if your 10-team league includes AL & NL, these #s will be useless. Also, we use a standard 14 offensive players and 9 pitchers format.
