I know my main weakness is Shortstop and i'm lacking in the steals department. It's too early to judge how this team might do since it's Feburary but I just wanted to do a draft for the hell of it.

Not a bad team at all. Lots of offense.

I'd say steals will be your weakness as well. You might not, but I always like to have three closers. Cause there is a good chance that one will get hurt or lose his job. And, it seems closers are always the hardest players to get.

I like having 3 closers as well because they pitch a lot and lower your ERA and stats easier than starters.

Yeah I was thinking about a Third Closer I could always pick one up during the Midseason.

Closers are easy to get because the sprout up all season. I like 3 closers as well, but I'd be content going into the season with 2 and keeping my eye out on guys that are about to get a shot cause someone is losing their job or getting injured.

There is always a Rafael Soriano, Manny Corpas, Matt Capps, or whoever every year, you can find a 3rd closer over the coarse of the season, I wouldn't go trying to trade for one at this point. Hell who knows your own favorite team could have a new closer 2 months into the season.

Blah. I wouldn't be too worried about closers. I'll be looking to get a guy, who people believe lost it, like Eric Gagne, in the later rounds. Plus, closer jobs change quite a bit throughout the year, and new closers emerge.

Maggs isn't going to have a year nearly as good as last year. When did you draft him?

Drafted Maggs in the 3rd round. I had the first pick in the league.
