I think I'm going to be hurting in SV and HR's. I'm not happy with my pitching staff but I think I'll stay away from the bottom of the league with them.

And Yes, I am Reds biased.

Yeah you will be hurting in Ks and saves. I like the Reds too, but not sure why you have Chapman. I generally only keep starters and actual closers. If it were me I would replace him with a closer.

I like your OF. I can't believe Stubbs was the last OF you picked. He went in the middle of our draft. I like most your position players though. With the exception of Napoli

I don't like Edwin either. We have an 8 team league and he is still a free agent

I guess I'm thinking Chapman is going to end up closing if something happens w/ Coco struggling or something.

Stubbs was a 12th round pick. I think my real steal was Chase Utley in the 7th.

Edwin was my last pick. I just wasn't happy with any 3B's when I went to draft one.

I really don't think Napoli was that bad of a pick. Plays C and 1B, 26 HR's last year.

Utley was good value in the 7th. Although the knee thing probably affected where he was picked.

Starters you have potential with Carpenter, Greinke, Garza and Beckett.

Unless this is a keeper league, you might as well cut Chapman. They have no plans for him to close this season because they aren't sure he can handle a blown save yet. Plus, they have the prospects to go get Soria from KC if Coco struggles.

I'm not a big fan of Napoli as your CI and Vlad as your only bench position player. You're hamstrung by that unless you release Chapman and get a position player for the bench. Napoli is a decent get as a catcher. But, that's because after McCann, Posey and Victor Martinez there's a huge drop off in healthy guys. Mauer's a crapshoot because you don't know what he'll give you this year.

Your middle infield with Utley and Rollins is some big question marks. If Rollins can bounce back you will be alright but who knows about Utley at this point. Keep both Edwin and Chapman, even if Aroldis doesnt close he will still give you some dang good ratios. Also I expect Edwin Encarncaion to have a big year.

You got two studs in M-cab and Choo so you should be good with those two leading the pack, plus youre in a 10 team league so there is always good players available on the waiver wire.

I got screwed as I had about 4 pitchers lined up, and each time someone reached for them ahead of me (ie, I was gonna reach cause I needed the starting pitching, and they were still taken). I was pissed. So I had to go a lot with potential towards the end of the draft... Also wasnt happy I ended up with Desmond Jennings when my internet went out and I got autopicked. Dropped him for Jake Fox...wasted pick.

It will look like:
C - Santana
1B - Cabrera
2B - Phillips
3B - Alvarez
SS - Escobar
OF - Choo
OF - Upton
OF - Granderson
