Like your team a lot.  strassburg, reimold and wade davis are all sleepers and should do well.  Not crazy about kung fu panda but I know I am in the minority on that.  Good draft overall.

had kung fu panda last year and i loved him, but used him at catcher, the guy can flat out hit

carlos gonzalez was a steal for me if he builds on last year, he can hit for avg, power, run and plays in coors

thx jacksup

Very nice team. I can't believe Braun and Cabrera were still available at 9! And you got them both!

IMO, you'll get exposed in the pitching categories but you have a nice lineup.  good luck this year.

lol, are you playing with morons? holy shit!!!

i'm in a 10 team league and theres no way you could create a team like that...you should win going away

and i see nothing really wrong with you pitching...

3 aces in Greinke, Lester, and HAnson - and Anderson is a very solid 4th hopefully - I don't like JEnks, but Soria is excellent and Aardsma should be solid #2 RP
