The Best Fantasy Pitching Staff EVAR!
So we had our fantasy draft the other day and it was an auto draft. I ranked my draft order out to 250 in a 11 team league and just about sh*t a brick when I saw my pitching staff. This is freakin ridiculous.
Zack Greinke
Roy Halliday
Tim Lincecum
Chris Carpenter
Dan Haren
Andrew Bailey
Mariano Rivera
Ryan Franklin
David Aardsma
Re: The Best Fantasy Pitching Staff EVAR!
Pretty good. Now how's the rest of your team look?
Re: The Best Fantasy Pitching Staff EVAR!
Are you also the owner of the other 10 teams in the league?
Re: The Best Fantasy Pitching Staff EVAR!
Your starters are great no doubt, but after Rivera your bullpen is shaky. Aardsma and Franklin are both due for a big let-down, and might lose their closer jobs, and Bailey is hurt.
I'd like to see what type of offense you managed to get as well.
Re: The Best Fantasy Pitching Staff EVAR!
Clearly you are the best pitching team in your league, even without seeing the other teams rosters.
However, with such great pitching your hitting has too be bottom 10-11.
Can we see your hitters?

We had a guy who autodrafted the best pitching staff ever last year.
He came in dead last.

That's usually how it works.
Best staff ever means worst offense ever. Since pitching is so fragile and unpredictable, you're better off having best offense ever.

lol i'm not seeing it at all
Re: The Best Fantasy Pitching Staff EVAR!
I don't see it either TRF.
Re: The Best Fantasy Pitching Staff EVAR!
His pen is a huge question mark. My top three starters against his might be a wash And Scherzer and Hughes are going to open some eyes. I like my staff much better.
Re: The Best Fantasy Pitching Staff EVAR!
Plus I got a little offense too...

I'm taking a chance on Desmond, Freese, Jackson and Escobar. counting on a bounceback from Beltre, but some good young talent. wish it were a dynasty league.
Re: The Best Fantasy Pitching Staff EVAR!
I still like his pitching better.
