Fantasy Baseball Draft

I hosted 11 other guys today for our fantasy baseball draft – usually one of the most anticipated days of the year.  The draft went pretty well with no major fights, nothing was broken in the house, and I think we finished in record time. 
 
I’m pretty happy with my team – overall I got most of the guys I targeted.  Here’s my team with the projected stats (projected by me):

If it goes according the plan above, I’ll finish in 4th place (with 99 points), and I’ll have 7 solid keepers going into next year (Mauer, Lee, Weeks, Tejada, Matsuzaka, Wainwright and Hughes).

We’ll see what happens.
