I know pitching is my weak point, so I want suggestions on who to draft. I have been stockpiling young pitchers since most of the big names are taken. I have the 5th pick and am pretty sure Alex Gordan and Matsuzake are going to go 1st and 2nd. Is there anybody that I should look for? I am at a loss. I was thinking Homer Bailey since this could be his year. I am also thinking about going younger at catcher. I Rod is still good, but not like he once was. Is there any glaring weakness that I should concentrate on???

You are heavy at 1st base...I'd gamble and make a trade for some pitching...reasoning that a backup 1st baseman or double duty type of player that can cover 1st in a pinch can be found easier than a good pitcher....

I forgot to mention the commish went overboard with the position players we get to have. Aside from the regular 8 spots, we get a CI,MI,IF, extra OF, and 2 utility players.

In my opinion, I would get rid of Bobby Abreu.

Without listening to MVB or some other Yankee fans, I don't think he will do that well this year.

for good young pitchers i really think Lester and Papplebon with the Red Sox are a good way to go.....both are very strong with good command

I tried to get them last season, but the owners didn't want to part with them. They wanted outrageous trades for them.
