Draft Day is Coming!

Draft day is quickly approaching for this fantasy baseball team owner. This year has me feeling less confident then in years past. My devotion to Chipper Jones has cost me dearly this year. He took my last keeper slot and I had to throw back Craig Kimbrel. I knew as I was doing it that it was not a head decision, but a heart decision. I do have the first pick of the 11th round in my draft, but unfortunately it is the 17th pick overall once the keepers are off the board. I have to adapt my strategy and will go after a quality back up to Chipper or a solid outfielder to round out my lineup. I've also got catchers on my mind for an early round pick. I am set at starting pitchers and will not grab a shortstop early since there are a few elite ones and the rest are decent average, low power guys. The great ones are taken, so I'll wait to grab a guy who can maybe swipe a few bags and not kill my batting average. After looking at my team this year, I am going to need to guess right on some sleepers and try to work a few trades to win it all this year. I don't think I have as strong a keeper group as I have in years past. I can't wait for draft day on March 17th and to continue my quest for my first World Series championship.
