I'm in a 10 team, H2H league w/ a bunch of categories, including holds. Hawkins went in the 10th round in our draft, admittedly to a Cubs fan who'd been 'forced' to take Pujols!! He did say he thinks Borowski will fade out and get hooked for Hawkins though...I couldn't see picking him where he did.

Oddly though, I got Donnelly in the 16th round and Worrell (who may move into closer w/ Wagner's question marks?) in the 19th, even though he kicked ass in the category last year. Apparently, my coplayers adopted the underresearch strategy. We didn't have holds last year but tossed it in this year as a way to add another playing category. I can't wait until week 2 or 3 and the scrambling for holds starts.

I've played in a league with holds for two years now and it's usually true that a few elite holders will start to be taken around round 10. More guys will start to disappear after round 15, and that's when I usually try to pick up one or two.
