Hey guys I'm a big fantasy football fan and understand it completley.I usually do pretty well in it every year..I am trying to get back into baseball hardcore this year like I used to be.I'll make this straight to the point..

In football I always shoot for s running back or 2 first in the draft.They usally generate me more points in my op...In fantasy baseball I dont know where to start with the draft?? I have ideas and know who I want and all.Its just a matter of when I want them.

Do I shoot for big hitters first? Do I shoot for a pitcher or 2.What positions on average usually generate alot of fantasy points?
Thanks guys I have a live draft tonight for a league I started with my family and just want some tips...

I'll be back on this afternoon thanks in advance...

my ideas is draft a well balanced team...if u cant get a big hr hitter get a bunch of 20+ hr guys...most of all grab a couple steals guys wether they gr8 players or not...and of course grab at least 2 gr8 starting pitchers...jus my opinion tho...

I'm a bit late to help. Hope your draft went well.
Anyway I try to seperate each position into "levels" and then try to get the most high level players possible. Early in the draft I look for a do it all type guy, a guy who can get you points in every, or at least most categories. Pitchers are funny. Once 1 or 2 go it creates a domino effect and if you don't strike you can wind up with a weak staff.

wright
utley
morneau
markakis
kemp
billingsley
drew
shields
soria
pence
nolasco
josh johnson
aviles
bell
span
hanrahan
encarnacion
pelfrey
jimenez
jones


if you can draft that team you'll be all set. maybe sub out morneau with a top pitcher and grab joey votto in the 6th/7th round instead.

votto is going to go 30hr/120rbi/.320 avg this year.

Thanks guys I think I got a pretty good team so far...help me find my weak points. these are my starters atm ..Here's my team:

posada
fielder
pedroia
M,Cabrera
Alexei Ramirez
beltran
V,Guerrero
B,Abreu
Teixiera
C,Delgado

Pitchers:
Santana
Beckett
Wood
Rivera
Sabathia
Valverde
Floyd
Maine

I know this team is decent and could use some work...but seems good for my first fantasy draft..I've actually made quite a few trades to get this team..thanks lookings for opinions now??Thanks in advance..

Great picks, best picks are Justin Upton, 5 tool playas



You got to have a balanced team, leave room for adding and dropping guys who suddenly CUM out of no where (i.e Justin Upton) At the start of the year, my serious league I had Johan, Halladay, Cliff Lee, Verlander, Nathan, and my team was doin ok but I had to find batting cuz I was losin big time in batting stats, but now I traded The Doc and got Howard, Chipper Jones for him now Im killin the league and in 1st place with a balanced team :D
