My Team

Just had my draft the other day.

10 person ESPN Head2Head League. I won the league last year, so I had the last pick in the draft. (K) stands for Keeper.

Offense:

C Carlos Santana (CLE)
1B Prince Fielder (MIL)
2B Ian Kinsler (TEX)
SS Hanley Ramirez (FLA) (K)
3B Pablo Sandoval (SFO)
OF Ryan Braun (MIL) (K)
OF Nick Swisher (NYY)
OF Delmon Young (MIN)
UTIL Paul Konerko (CHI)

BE Angel Pagan (NYM)
BE Kurt Suzuki (OAK)

SP Jon Lester (BOS)
SP Clayton Kershaw (LAD)
SP Josh Johnson (FLA)
SP Edinson Volquez (CIN)
SP Travis Wood (CIN)
SP James Shields (TB)
SP Gavin Floyd (CHI)

RP J.J. Putz (ARI)
RP Huston Street (COL)

I'm pretty excited about this team. The last few years I've succeeded solely because of a monstrous offense despite average pitching. This year I tried to draft differently and be a little bit more balanced. I think my pitching is better than my offense this year, and has the potential to be really excellent.

On offense I'm worried about the Delmon Young pick. I've heard good things about him this Spring, so I drafted him in hopes that he might build on his breakout season last year. If he doesn't though, that pick could burn me.

Other worrisome picks: Kinsler (injury prone), Sandoval (can he regain form?), and Swisher (can he stay consistent?).

What do you guys think?

Re: My Team

Not a bad team. Do you have any DL spots in case of injuries?
