Well, my last draft for 11 1/2 months didn't go nearly as well as I had hoped. The biggest surprise for me was Carlos Pena going in Round 16, which led to my getting flustered and picking Bud Smith in the 17th. Like my two other teams, I came out with a strong, young pitching staff, though I have fewer closers here than I'd like (thanks to a run on closers in the second round).
