FanGraphs ottoneu Experts League Draft Results

We held what might perhaps be the first keeper auction experts league on the 31st. The results were epic.

At least, they felt that way after so many adult sodas, so many auctions.
So many broken dreams.

The ringer, a three-time ottoneu champion.
Has values on that bench, but is it enough all over?

Mix and match in the outfield. Not a ton of youth, right?
The professor might still teach us a lesson.

Not a ton of top-end youth, but no real obvious weakness.

Intriguing youth, and a thin outfield.
Jack’s stars and scrubs offense just needs a few sleepers to come through.

This man stymied me in many an auction.
Other than a slight misbalance between O and P, this looks like a contender.

Offense looks strong, all the way to the bottom.
The top of his pitching looks like the bottom of some other staffs, though.
