End of the line for the draft. Thanks for looking if you have any questions feel free to ask. Or on Twitter @RotoHero. Part I. Part II. Part III. Part IV.
This year we played with 8, with even further expanded rosters. I was 3rd pick for 29 rounds of bliss. Our league is 5x5 Roto, but instead of the conventional AVG, we play OBP (I suggest you all do the same), and an innings cap of 1650. (1650 works out to about 6 SPs and 5 RPs for the season).
Out positions: C, 1B, 2B, 3B, SS, CI, MI, LF, CF, RF, OF, OF, Util, Util, SP, SP, SP, SP, RP, RP, P, P, P, P, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN, DL.

7. Doug Fister (Det - SP) Girls Don’t …
8. Matt Wieters (Bal - C) Uggies vs Yu…
My Picks: Johnson. Peralta. Both should be good. Johnosn was the last closer whose job wasn’t speculative. Happy to have 5 to start in a league that is very active. Peralta will be there if my worst INF Hardy fails.
Hero Pick: Wieters. I like both the Francoeur and Fister picks, but Wieters will actually play his value here. I probably should have taken him, but am still happy with my fills.
Villain Pick: Cordero. For some reason on our draft day Cordero was launched to 105ish in rankings, even though he isn’t closing. We had the discipline not to take him early, but considering this could have been a better setup RP or potential closer, bad pick.

5. Jose Tabata (Pit - LF,RF) Game Recogni…
6. Chase Utley (Phi - 2B) Baghwan’s Ba…
7. Todd Helton (Col - 1B) Girls Don’t …
8. Shaun Marcum (Mil - SP) Uggies vs Yu…
My Picks: McCarthy. Hunter. McCarthy is why I waited for some of my SPs. Other than wins he’ll be awesome. Hunter is mostly influenced by the fact I can see LAA games, but if he does close to what he did last year, this is still a deal. Another OF you can hold out for.
Hero Pick: McCarthy. Best player on the board and he will outproduce many SPs taken before him.
Villain Pick: Utley. He will have some value, the question is when. Unless you have room on your DL, make him go undrafted, he will be more harm than good till we have an idea of when he is back.
Round 26
1. Colby Rasmus (Tor - CF) Uggies vs Yu…
2. Carlos Lee (Hou - 1B,LF) Girls Don’t …

7. Vance Worley (Phi - SP) Clip Show
8. Kelly Johnson (Tor - 2B) Storm VIII/S…
Round 27
1. Martin Prado (Atl - 3B,LF) Storm VIII/S…

3. Dustin Ackley (Sea - 2B) Shooting Blanks
4. Addison Reed (CWS - RP) DrunkDrafter
5. Rajai Davis (Tor - CF,RF) Game Recogni…
6. Austin Jackson (Det - CF) Baghwan’s Ba…
7. Nyjer Morgan (Mil - LF,CF,RF) Girls Don’t …
8. Matt Joyce (TB - LF,RF) Uggies vs Yu…
My Picks: Freese. Ackley. Once again I pranked it. Freese was a hero in the WS and just of who is around will outproduce Figgins and Davis. Ackley, was not needed by me but already went yard and shouldn’t have still been there for me.
Hero Pick: Worley. If I knew he would have been taken, I would have taken him even in the rounds before. I love my picks, but I think Worley is going to be a hero.
Villain Pick: Figgins. Taken in front of Freese, I can’t believe it. I understand the gamble and it’s hard to get SBs at a corner infielder, but if you want to gamble you could do it in a round or too.
Round 28
1. Jonny Venters (Atl - RP) Uggies vs Yu…
2. David Robertson (NYY - RP) Girls Don’t …
3. Mike Aviles (Bos - 2B,3B,SS) Baghwan’s Ba…

4. Max Scherzer (Det - SP) DrunkDrafter
5. Fernando Salas (StL - RP) Game Recogni…
6. Brent Lillibridge (CWS - 1B,LF,CF,RF) Baghwan’s Ba…
7. Ian Desmond (Was - SS) Girls Don’t …
8. Aroldis Chapman (Cin - RP) Uggies vs Yu…
My Picks: Martin. Minor. Martin is exactly why I wait on a catcher. I got a Yankee and if he fades or someone is hot, it costs me nothing to drop. Minor is going is a great choice, I have since dropped him to get into the BOS closer sweepstakes and he was grabbed immediately.
Hero Pick: Morneau or Carpenter. I liked my picks, but both these are great low risk/high reward.
Villain Pick: Madson. It’s unfortunately easy to pick since he is out for the year.
