You have a really nice team assembled.

The top 2B, and elite at SS and 3B...and Craig is a really nice 1B to have as I think he could be a top-3 1B at the end of the year. Your outfield is excellent if you are aiming toward SB as being a strong point for you and since you have E. Cabrera on the bench, I assume that's what your going for. You have some decent guys at OF in terms of power, but I would of liked to see instead of Carlos Gomez if you could have gotten a Trumbo/Willingham/N.Cruz type of player since you basically had a firm grip at SB with Reyes, Bourne, and Cabrera. But I can't see everyone's team so maybe you needed Gomez to put you at the top of SB, and that's just my opinion, maybe you like to construct your team that way.

And half of your starting pitching staff is on my team so I love it...excellent job in a 12-team league to get Bumgarner, Cueto, and Moore, who are all excellent options. Gallardo is another sneaky good pitcher (very underestimated) and Wade Miley should be solid this year after an awesome rookie year. Now I'm not sure on how many SP you can have on your roster, but you might have too few. I don't pay attention to relievers just because I usually ignore the category in my league (we have 12 categories and its only 1), but I did like Wilhelmsen so I feel he's gonna be decent. Rondon is the guy who obviously could flourish s we shall see.

I would say without seeing any other team that you have a top-2, top-3 team.

I would give you a grade of 9/10.
