Drafting Pitchers

Postby jefferey13 » Tue Mar 20, 2012 3:24 pm

Assume Halladay, Verlander, and Kershaw have already been drafted. Which pitchers would you draft above their rank? and at which spot would that be?. (Assume 10 man H2H, and I'm curious about your pick #, not round)



I ask this because I have been mock drafting and notice pitchers are going quick and I thought people were over valuing them, so I let them go. Once pitchers were being drafted closer to their value, it was like 12 rounds in, and these guys had bad ERA's and WHIP.

I generally don't take any pitching until the 9th or 10th round, so figure in the neighborhood of pick 85-95 or so.

A lot depends on the scoring settings, but generally, hitters carry more value because they contribute to more categories.

Thanks for the reply, but I am curious which pitcher you would take? I should have been more clear.

I'll edit my above post.
