I've been playing in the same fantasy baseball league since 2000, and really haven't paid much attention to it the past 6-8 years. I watch the Tigers occasionally, and really don't care too much for baseball outside of that. I really only play because a few of my friends are die hard MLB fans, and I like the interaction with them during the season. I've come in last or near the bottom nearly every year for the past decade.

Well, I happened to win my league this year, and yahoo has a free post season tournament for those who won their league. So I have a chance to win $40k. I really have no clue on whom to draft for the playoffs. It is a salary cap league, and they take the top 50% of fantasy managers after each series. So, any suggestions? I have $200 to spend for 10 players (2 pitchers, 3 OF, and 1 player from all other positions). You can average $20 per player, but for some reason the very cheapest pitchers cost $25, with the Kershaw costing $60 (Max and Bum are $58).

Any cheap sleepers you would suggest? I'd like to get a top end pitcher, but if my second pitcher costs me at least $25, my pitchers would likely end up costing me between $70-$90 of my $200 salary cap. To do that I would need to find at least 3 position players that are $10 or cheaper. It may not be worth getting a top end pitcher (one that costs between $45-$60), but even 2 middle of the pack pitchers are likely to cost me $60+.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Tell your dad you're gay. It worked for me, and he probably already suspects anyway

I've done that already, he still doesn't believe me. Maybe if YOU and I got together and did some PDA in front of him, he'd start believing me. Are you up for a road trip?? :suds:

I guess I'm on my own with this fantasy lineup. Oh well! With as much baseball as I watch per year, it's not like I deserve to be in this contest anyway. Dumb luck got me here.
