Did you have an

moment at any time during your draft or fantasy season?
For me,
Every other start from Greinke was like

in 2009.
During our draft,
Clay Buchholz being drafted in the 4th round.

A couple seconds after he goes outside, there's that one moment of silence, and whoever it was on TV said "Don't draft Stephen Strasburg this season". It was high comedy.

Funny!

Anyway, someone took Roy Halladay 3rd overall (Pujols and Hanley went 1-2). We gave him a lot of crap for it.
I don't know that's a completely terrible move. If you want to build your team around pitching, the argument can easily be made that Halladay is the best choice. An already-dominant pitcher moving to the NL, playing on one of the best teams? If you're in a league that counts Wins as a category, I think he's the best starter out there (I think Lincecum is close, but won't get as many W's). I think #3 is a little early, but I wouldn't have a problem with him as a first round draft pick.
