Another Day, Another Draft

Today was another automated draft for my Fox Sports head-to-head league. This team turned out to be pretty interesting:

Team: Gyro Ballerz

Catcher: Victor Martinez (CLE) / Jorge Posada (NYY)
First Base: Derrek Lee (CHC) / Nomar Garciaparra (LAD) / Shea Hillenbrand (LAA)
Second Base: Robinson Cano (NYY) / Craig Biggio (HOU)
Third Base: Troy Glaus (TOR) / Mike Lowell (BOS) / Shea Hillenbrand (LAA)
Short Stop: Stephen Drew (ARI)
Outfield: Ichiro (SEA) / Carlos Beltran (NYM) / Andruw Jones (ATL) / Alex Rios (TOR)
Starting Pitching: Johan Santana (MIN) / Chris Carpenter (STL) / Rich Harden (OAK) / CC Sabathia (CLE) / Chris Capuano (MIL) / Matt Cain (SFG)
Relief Pitching: Huston Street (OAK) / Takashi Saito (LAD)

With "Innings Pitched" one of the stats and no limit there's no reason not to load up on starting pitching. Though a few more relievers might be good for more saves. I've already raided the waiver wire for some last minute closers. I like this team. Everything seems pretty strong except for shortstop. And I really don't know what Stephen Drew will be doing this year so he might be a surprise.

Tomorrow will be the live draft for my fourth of what will be a 4-team fantasy year for Leather Runs & Repeat. Let the season begin.
