Slow Forum Draft - I'm on Deck

[Tenacious D-Store]

You guys have seen this draft before, but I'm coming up again. This is a Yahoo 5x5 H2H league.
I'm thinking Ichiro (since I'm always low on speed) or Youkilis to play at third. I've never actually owned him before, gotta love the BA and low strikeouts if nothing else. Make other suggestions if you'd like.

10. oddmanout - Ryan Howard, 1B
9. mightyfacundo - Evan Longoria, 3B
8. thewise - BJ Upton, OF

[ayebatter]

Suzuki's stock in trade, speed & average, should both be down graded in h2h, and it's way to early for Youk. I'd look at Ortiz here in the 4th.

[mission27]

I'd go Chris Davis over Youk 100 out of 100 times. I guess he's the pick there.

[HOOTIE]

Not Youkilis. Ichiro or Ortiz. If you need 5 OF spots, Ichiro. If not, probably Ortiz.

[Tenacious D-Store]

Just 3 OF spots. Kinda forgot about Papi, that's why I hate these forum drafts, I like to be able to build a queue from a visible player pool.

[GiantsFan14]

uggla or abreu would be my choice.

[Tenacious D-Store]

I considered Abreu too, but I think I'm going to break away from my regular draft strategy and take Uggla (unless the team before me does). He appears to have fallen a few picks compared to other drafts I've done. Still not sure why I took K-Rod. I think it was just because I've never owned him before. Not much of a reason.

if i was gonna take a closer there, it would be papelbon 100/100 times over k-rod.

[lastingsgriller]

in my opinion you have pisseed this draft away.. that K-Rod pick was a disaster... now there are 0 good 3B left in the league and OF is getting thin... i just glanced quickly and it looks like Mauer is still available.. he's probably your best bet... then grab Cantu later for 3B
