Fantasy Baseball Newbie Primer

[Burnsy]

There\'s still lots of guys undrafted (like I said 4 sports) and I am trying to decide between a few guys.

I need a Catcher, a 3B, I only have 1 OF and 1 pitcher so far.

Some of the guys I am considering to pick up shortly are:

Nick Markakis, Garrett Atkins, Russel Martin, or maybe picking up my first RP in Soria.

What do you guys think?

Well after tonight here\'s where I am sitting, I have no idea what quality some of my new picks are:


C- Victor Martinez
1B - Prince Fielder
2B - Chase Utley
3B - Chone Figgins
SS - Hanley Ramirez
OF - Nate McLouth
OF - Magglio Ordonez
UTIL - (Don\'t even know what that means?!)
SP - Jake Peavy
SP - Chad Billingsley
RP - Joba Chamberlain
RP -
P -
P -
P -
BNx5 -

Was thinking I was going to fill my OF slots first and then perhaps finish off strong with some pitching but now I\'m not sure, should I go the other way around? And what the heck is UTIL? Anyone I want? (non-pitcher)

[J Status]

UTIL can be anyone but pitchers. So any fielding position other than SP, RP or P.

[Burnsy]

Oops I have 1 more OF position to fill yet as well. Thanks for the info on UTIL.

[Burnsy]

Well I\'ve only got a few picks left and I\'ll probably try and snag a couple pitchers (maybe even all 3 picks will be pitching).


Here\'s my current roster, I think it\'s solid but where might I have some holes that need to be filled?

C Victor Martinez
1B Prince Fielder
2B Chase Utley
3B Chone Figgins
SS Hanley Ramirez
OF Nate McLouth
OF Magglio Ordonez
OF Torii Hunter
UTIL Alex Gordon
SP Jake Peavy
SP Chad Billingsley
RP Joba Chamberlain
RP Joakim Soria
P Justin Verlander
P Aaron Harang
P Carlos Marmol
