Mine is heavily weighted toward BP's PECOTA forcasts for some marginal players - thus, I avoided a lot of high-risk picks and tried to fill in my team with solid characters. Here's the rundown:
C - V. Martinez (his projections are off the charts)
1B - Dunn
2B - Kent
3B - A. Rod (a bit of irony, since my team is ARod's Manicurists)
SS - B. Crosby
OF - M. Cabrera
OF - L. Berkman
OF - JD Drew
UT - P Burrell (he will be the Comeback Player of the Year)
BN - Wily Mo (seriously - he's one hammy injury from exploding)
SP - Pedro
SP - Hudson
RP - Dotel
RP - Julio
P - J. Vazquez
P - Z. Greinke
P - M. Buehrle
BN - Lieber
BN - Pettitte
BN - Penny (a draft-and-follow)
I think my team is extremely strong, except for the RP - I figure I can pick up a closer later, depending on which mid-market team moves up (or when Ugueth gets traded to the Mets, or Mesa dies). I've traded a little upside (excepting Crosby and Greinke) for solid players in good situations - Pedro in a monster pitcher's park, Hudson with Mazzone, Berkman playing on the moon. My only injury risks are the two Dodgers, and Kent has been the most consistent 2B over the last 4 years and projects really well, even in Chavez Ravine (huge avg boost to offset the power decline, and more doubles to support slg).
God Bless Fantasy Baseball.
