My Fantasy Baseball Draft

I participated in my fantasy draft this past Saturday night. I think I did OK. I had a plan and I stuck to it for the most part. My draft results are below. My first pick was Prince Fielder. I narrowed it down to either Fielder or Teixiera and I chose Fielder. He should give me plenty of runs, home runs, and RBI. (Please don’t get hurt Prince) I took a risk by taking the oft-injured Josh Hamilton and Francisco Liriano but I like the upside. I took some prospects in the later rounds. I think Matt LaPorta is the most intriguing of the bunch. Overall, I covered all statistics fairly well. I will be in good shape until my first DL trip comes around – probably in a couple of weeks.
