I surprised myself by taking back-to-back Red Sox pitchers in the 10th and 11th, but I was desperate for SP after my go-to guy, Chad Billingsley, was selected in the 7th round.

We start C, 1B, 2B, 3B, SS, MI, CI, 4 OF, UTIL, 2 SP, 2 RP and 3 P.

I currently have Weeks at MI and Cantu at CI.

I absolutely love my first 4 picks, doubting my selection of Martin over McCann in the 5th but I don't think it's a big deal. Adam Dunn is worth more in this league than a normal league because he OBP's about 150 points higher than his AVG. I'm also pretty thrilled with Chris Davis in the 9th round as my 3B.
