Caught in the draft
Apr. 3rd, 2005 09:37 amI stayed up until 4 AM working on my lists for Saturday morning's draft. Didn't get all the pitchers done, and didn't get the outfielders done at all, but nonetheless I managed to pick up a good team, one that should be in contention and possibly even win it all. Remainder hidden behind the cut to spare friends not into baseball.
Opening Day roster:
C: Joe Mauer
1b: Justin Morneau
2b: Luis Castillo
3b: Brandon Inge
SS: Jimmy Rollins
OF: Rob Mackowiak
OF: Brian Wilkerson
OF: Preston Wilson
DH: Erubiel Durazo
Bench: 3b Mike Lowell, OF Juan Pierre, OF Richard Hidalgo, IF BJ Upton
SP: Pedro Matinez, Livan Hernandez
RP: Brad Lidge, K-Rod
P: Bronson Arroyo, Dontrelle Willis, Kiko Calero
DL: Kelvim Escobar
Upton was the only screwup; if I'd been my usual obsessive self and reading Baseball Weekly or whatever it's called this week, I would have noticed that the D-Rays sent him down to AAA for more seasoning, the dumbasses.
