Maybe it will work we'll see.  |

I kept a pricey Lucroy in my NL only auction league and am not regretting it so much. Having two iffy catchers at those spots can really tank the batting average, so it's nice to get some help there. I know Molina is deemed a guy in decline, but I believe he should bounce back in the average department.
I like the team, and though you've got a couple of old guys in the infield it's at least a solid base for NL-only. The arms aren't splashy after the first two, but you just need guys to fill the spots until some young guys off the wire are found. In the past guys like Arroyo, Derek Lowe, Hudson, Zito, etc have stepped up and had a good season. You may be pleasantly surprised.
Pagan for a dollar might work out quite well if he can keep it together for most of the season.

This is the first time in WR's NL auction that I've had the discipline to be patient and not go too crazy with the early bidding. Paid off in all sorts of ways, not least in getting two "full-time" catchers near the end of the auction in d'Arnaud ($7) and Ramos ($5). Very happy with them at a total of $12.
Would never pay $17 for one catcher, except perhaps Posey, but there was no chance of that happening here (someone paid $30 for him).

Hey Rev I've never done the 'pay for 2 catchers' before and it wasn't even in the back of my mind before the draft kind of just happened after I paid up for LuCroy but it makes my offense look cool doesn't it, we'll see how it pans out.  |

Yeah, you do have a nice offense there. Pitching isn't too bad either...although I like mine better  |
