As it goes with anyone who drafts Pujols this year, your offense pretty much depends on his health. I personally am risk averse that early in a draft . . . Not a huge fan of Furcal, his numbers were inflated by a flukey good run in a few games in September last year, I think you would have done better picking someone like Young or Tejada a round later or so.
You definitely need to drop at least one of your outfielders for another serviceable starter, you are pretty thin in that department. You have two strong relievers in Lidge and Jenks and a superior setup guy in Betancourt, but your starters aren't huge K guys so you will struggle in that department, so make sure you look for a decent SP or two on the wire that can fan some guys.
