Noc, Your funny.
Dave, What I'm saying is it starts with your pre-rankings. The closer you can get it to where each player is being drafted in a average draft or where they should be drafted the best off you will be.
For when runs happen if you know the players that they should be drafting that is a big advantage. What I say is you shouldn't overpay for anyone.
It's best to go with the few of the draft and not get cought up in the runs. The only winners of runs are those that stay out of them and the one who starts them. You got to take the draft in two parts.
First part you got to just take the best players you can get without worry of the possitions as long as you don't take too many of one possition or bench hitters.
Then once the draft gets to the point where the best Players are gone and only borderline proven players remain that when you take your guys your willing to gamble on to fill your few open spots.
Encarnación might be good enough to start at utilty. Hermida might be good enough at start at Outfield. Your team would look better with Papelbon or Weeks. Maybe not Bonds though.
Sure some of the guy you gamble may not pain out but that really isn't a problem for few reasons.
1) the guys that take all the outfielders will come to you when they find out they luck good infielders and pitchers and they see you have want they need. Sure you'll have to fight though the stupid offers but they will give in sooner or later.
And 2) if your gambles don't pain out you can always drop them and pick up someone that is paining out.
You just got to remenber after every draft there still is enough talent that remains available to win any league and all you have to do is find them before everyone else. You got to trust that you can find them.
