Pretty solid. I assume Johan and Pujols went 1 & 2?

Gonzalez seems to be a little early even for a NL only league. If he wasn't in Petco I'd say 3rd round would be fine, but he's still solid.

Actually, David Wright and Hanley Ramirez...

I needed power with that third pick, and outside of Dunn, Gonzalez had the most to offer...

It's NL only.

So far I have Jimmy Rollins and Jake Peavy.

Johan plays for the New York Mets. I figured Johan went early, but then I remembered that you guys are playing a dynasty league. That changes the draft drastically.

My bad. That's the reason I didn't pick him. I feel really stupid right now.

Very nice start, especially for a dynasty league. Those 3 will be studs for years. Ramirez will not put up quite the runs scored this year without Cabrera knocking him in, but all his other stats will be equal or better.

I should have joined this league, oh well. I waited to long.

Re: NL only dynasty league

I picked up Dunn this round. Zambrano was already picked, and I really wanted him.

Re: NL only dynasty league

That's a very risky team. Weeks seems to be injured every year. Hanley had shoulder surgery. Pence has lacerations all over his body, and was injured last year. Martin, as does any catcher, has increased risk for injuries. Haren has pitched over 215IP the last 3 years, so he could have been overused.

I'd be pleased for the most part.
