    How many catchers did you specify when you filled out your draft card?

    If you only put down 1, then it won't take one because you have already filled your designated quota (Kendall).

    I thought I put two but I guess not... Is there a reason why all the starting lineups on team pages have two starting cathcers spot.

    Because you are allowed to start two catchers, since catchers rarely play all of their team's games.

    I'm really happy with the pace of the draft this year. No real stragglers.

    Yep, due to the fact that many catchers tend to miss a lot of games thoughout the season, Sandbox allows you to start up to two to compensate.

    So, if you have a single, durable catcher like Kendall, you're best to just play him all the time. However, if you have two less than durable catchers like Sandy Alomar and Jason Varitek, you're better off going with some sort of platoon.

    You could last year, but I don't see it anywhere this year.

    DV, Halladay was one of my sleeper picks:mad: I saw him pitch quite a bit last year, he is the real deal.

    Sandbox screwed up somehow by not allowing us to see how many players we set at each position.

    I was thinking of taking Zimmerman if he came back to me as a third reliever. Forget about that. He shoud have another good year. The only problem is the temptation to use Rocker. It's a strange thing, but I think managers will always like to gamble with him on the mound.

    I picked Hideo Nomo because hes going to a pitchers park which basically cuts runs 20%. So, if he performs even better than last year, I am going to have a kick ass collection of Starting pitchers

    I knew about him fade, but I felt Matt Anderson was the better choice to round out a 7 man staff of Garcia,Russ Ortiz,Penny,Dempster,Halladay,Smoltz-closer,Anderson-closer

    My bigger joy was getting shannon stewart, he was definitely a good value pick where I got him. Also I had kim on my radar too.

    I can't believe Sean Casey fell all the way to the 14th round. He's my first real "steal" of the draft.
