We powered through our fantasy baseball draft tonight. I’m pretty pleased with my team, though I wasn’t as prepared as I should have been. I’d like to have one more closer and a little more speed, but I should do well in the percentage categories and my starting pitchering rotation is pretty much untouchable. I need Corey Patterson to come back strong and stay healthy.

I put myself in a little bit of a mess right off the bat. After I took Frank Thomas, I wanted to take Ryan Klesko, but I would have had to put Klesko in my Util spot which would leave no room for me to draft Edgar later. I probably should have taken a better closer initially and waited on the sluggers, though I’m thrilled to have Thomas back.

This is the third year in a row I’ve drafted Sean Burroughs, this year as Mr. Irrelevant . I hope he has a healthy season and fulfills that potential he’s been dragging around for years. Ah well, we’ll see how it turns out.
