Tout Wars Results and Fantasy (Alesay out does AROD!)

12

AL Only and Mixed league finished. NL only today. Anyway I figured its about time for another thread for fantasy for those with late drafts and altering lineups - pickups, etc. I personally like this draft because they are current (not 4 months ago before to meet print deadlines) and most of the folks I respect. All auction of course but you can translate roughly for drafting. Quick highlights AL only league 1) Matt Berry of ESPN (one of the folks I DON"T respect) paid 27 bucks for our great Rameriz, inching the unsure AROD by $2 and $2 less than ROY Longoria. Of course some of this is position scarcity but I've noticed Alexei rising in ADP in general (many times over Q who went for $25). The point is many are really starting to feel Alexei may have a monster year in regards to counting stats. And with the way he bats with baseloaded I tend to agree (lol.) Seriously the love was flowing for him among several experts. Take that JRE!!!! 2) Tex went for $37 3)Wieters went for $9. Folks don't crazy over this guy, especially if you go year to year (no keepers) and especially in a mixed league. 4)CC $30 - AJBurnett $20 (screw the evil empire.) 5)Larry's favorite Justin went for $30 and his other Maggs went for $24 (cheap was the comment) 6)Holliday ONLY $28. That Oakland park really sucks. 7)Sam Walker (A closet White Sox fan I think) spent $6 bucks on babe magnet BA. Walker won last year largely on the strength of young bucks named Floyd and Danks. Who are those guys???? I still recommend his book Fantasyland (dirt cheap now) plenty of laugh out loud moments for an idiot spending a fortune to win a free league. 8) Big Papi down to $21 9) Danks high Sox starting pitcher for $13. 10) Fields and Crede $9 a piece 11) Carmona $4 ouch. 12) Sweeney $12 Complete Spreadsheet for AL only http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=pO0IbKkxiVgsL6J5gGr_2eA Anyway hopefully a few folks can add who they really like or don't like this year. If not I'll continue to add posts and ramble on to myself!
