News / NE Fantasy Baseball League

Cork has a very good team. But I think mine can contend.

C Lo Duca, Paul (C, 1B-LA) Good player, one of the best for LA
1B Snow, J.T. (1B-SF) Best player for the Giants
2B Thurston, Joe (2B-LA) Big prospect for LA
3B Glaus, Troy (3B-Ana) WS MVP and great power hitter
SS Eckstein, David (SS-Ana) Probably the guy who most wants to be out there
LF Matsui, Hideki (LF-NYY) I'll give Godzilla a shot
CF Roberts, Dave (CF-LA) This guy loves to be out there, and is a great bunter
RF Green, Shawn (RF-LA) Great power hitter, staple of LA's lineup.
OF Salmon, Tim (RF, DH-Ana) I hope he has a season like last year, and not 2001.
OF Alou, Moises (LF-ChC) I hope he's not over the hill
OF Hunter, Brian L. (CF-Hou) He's quick, and always kills the Dodgers
IF Koskie, Corey (3B-Min) Best hitter on the Twins
Util Hinske, Eric (3B-Tor) Power hitter for Toronto
Bench Cora, Alex (SS, 2B-LA) He did great for the Dodgers last season

SP Lackey, John (SP-Ana) The playoff performance was promising
SP Contreras, Jose (SP-NYY) Another foreign Yankee prospect
RP Rodriguez, Francisco (RP-Ana) He was my #1 pick, I hope hitters don't catch on to his slider
RP Worrell, Tim (RP-SF) He shut down Anaheim in the WS for the most part
P Sele, Aaron (SP-Ana) I hope he can rebound after missing all of the playoffs
P Weber, Ben (RP-Ana) If only he could get that 3rd out...
P Remlinger, Mike (RP-ChC) One of the top free agents this offseason

Their are quite a few good teams, iris's and Corks, and your's looks pretty good ^.

Here's mine.

Bentio Santiago--©--Nice late round pick up for catcher. I'm not expecting much, just average catcher numbers.

Rafael Palmerio--(1B)--Second round pick. At least 40 homeruns for me, 100+ ribbies. 500 club as well.

Junior Spivery--(2B)--ehh...misread stats, picked in 5th round...yea.

Hank Blalock--(3B)--Awesome prospect, nice talent.

Omar Vizquel--(SS)--Sweet late round pick up.

Luis Gonzo--(LF)--Gonzo. Nuff Said.

Juan Gonzo--(RF)--Gonzo. If is healthy, nuff said.

Corey Patterson--(CF)--Nother prospect.

Raul Mondesi--(OF)--Might have productive year...

Kevin Mench--(OF)--Shrek. Homerun man.

Alex Sanchez--(OF)--never heard of him. Just needed speed for the team.

Micheal Young--(IF)--Nice pickup.

Eric Owens--(UTIL)--Speed.


Randy Johnson--(SP)--Best pitcher? You bet.

Roger Clemens--(SP)--Give me one more year Roger.

Tim Wakefield--(RP)--Knuckler....

Jeff Zimmerman--(RP)--Could become best closer in game.

Hideo Nomo--(P)--Off and On guy. I hope he's on.

Kelvim Escobar--(P)--Closer.

Jason Jennings--(P)--Please win again.

Kerry Wood--(P)--He'll be back.

Yea.

Thanks BigFoot.

Just for those interested, my team is:

Jason Varitek--Catcher--Solid catcher, doesn't put up huge stats but won't hurt me at this position either.

Carlos Delgado--1B--My SIXTH round pick, guarenteed at least 30 & 100 every year. When healthy, averages 40 HR's per year. My best late round pick imo.

Roberto Alomar--2B--This was a very late pick, and I'm hoping he can return to his true form, where he can get in the 90-100 RBI range. Last year he sucked, but he has a great coach now, hoping he can rebound.

Scott Rolen--3B--Mr. consitancy. Will get 30 HR's & 100 RBI's. Smart player, one of the top two or three third basemen in the league.

Miguel Tejada--SS--My top pick, nothing I can say that isn't already known about him.

Brian Jordan--LF--Slightly injury prone, still a good player though. If he has a healthy, full season, could put up big numbers.

Torii Hunter--CF--My third overall pick, possibly the most underrated superstar in baseball. Was last year's Twins season a fluke?

Gary Sheffield--RF--My fifth pick. Was a quiet player last year statistic wise, but is having a very nice Spring Training, and always has potential to hit 40+ HR's.

Steve Finley--OF--Another consitant player, although aging. Should put up some solid numbers though, like always.
Mark Kotsay--OF--Not a superstar, but another pretty decent player. Picked him up real late in the draft, give or take on him.
Jeromy Burnitz--OF--Was getting bout 30 HR's a year until last year when every Met sucked. Hopefully they don't do it again.

John Olerud--IF--Always hits 300, always has tons of hits (166 last year), good RBI man. Picked him up late, so I'm liking this pick.

Adrian Beltre--Util--Solid hitter. Bout 25 HR's a year, hits like 270. Nothing extraordinary, may find time on my bench.

Jeremy Giambi--Bench--Gradually improving with the years, may end up dropping him though.

Barry Zito--SP--My second overall pick, this year's reigning NL Cy Young winner. Gotta love that curveball.
Kevin Milwood--SP--My second starting pitcher, I think he'll be a 20 game winner this year w/the Phils.

Octavio Dotel--RP--Very solid relief man. Gotten some early trade offers for him.
Matt Mantei--RP--Solid RP if he can stay healthy.

Kevin Appier--Had to go with the Ape with a late round pick. One of my three remaining pitchers, should win 15-16 games this year.
Woody Williams--Always has had potential to be a great pitcher, but injury-prone.
Orlando Hernandez--El Duque!

Nice trade I just had (or will have, must wait for pending period to pass).

The Birmingham Rebels get Bentio Santiago and Tim Wakefield

The Brooklyn BigFoot's get Wade Miller.

I really wanted to add another strong starter to my lineup.

Now, i just don't have a catcher, lol.
