This year at Pitcher List, we're having fun with our internal staff fantasy league. We held a slow draft that lasted across five days, ending Monday evening. We wanted to get our readers involved as well, making us come up with the Pitcher List Staff League Contest, which has everyone of our Patreon supporters linked to one of our writers. If your writer wins the league, you get a free merch, simple as that. Help support the site and follow your team through the year with our weekly updates every Monday.
I asked each writer after the draft to write a summary about their team with no specific guidelines. Some took full liberty (cough *Ian Post* cough), while others kept it simple and straight forward. Here are the draft results to reference through the article as we dive into each team's draft approach:
Pitcherlist, how do you feel about this pitching staff? 10 teamer, H2H standard categories:
Kyle Hendricks
Jose Quintana
John Lackey
Aaron Nola
Jake Odorizzi
Lance Lynn
Daniel Norris
Sorry, forgot I have Sean Manaea too.
I think you need a bit more dependability at the top on end in a 10-teamer as the shallower you get, it’s all about consolidating top tier talent.
Not bad though, have a short leash with the backend guys as I’m sure there will be options to be had on the wire.
