Fantasy Update: Battle Of The Blogs

‘BATTLE OF THE BLOGS’

FANTASY LEAGUE UPDATE 05.01.2010:

April was not quite as successful for Lady Loves Pinstripes fantasy team, compared to my pure and very real New York Yankees.

Alex Rodriguez‘s struggles continue to plague my team. Arod’s performance is my tremendous advantage that has not been fruitful just yet.

Injuries have been difficult as Mike Cameron remains on the DL, recently joined by ace pitcher Jorge DeRosa and stints by Aaron Hill and Jason Werth whom are both back healthy. Werth is back to himself completely, thank god.

Opening game for fantasy baseball coincides with the regular season, and tonight my fantasy league, ‘Battle Of The Blogs‘ officially began.

It is a 20 team H2H (head to head) league on ESPN.com, with a six player keeper rule which means six players will carry over to next season fantasy season.

In the draft I had the first pick, and used it for NYY Alex Rodriguez, partly because of Albert Pujols has been bothered again by back spasms which are a concern, and partly out of loyalty.

Arod is healthy and will put up monster numbers this season, as he always has consistently. Automatically a keeper so please no time for negative Arod comments as he is on my team for better or for worse.

Any suggestion would be appreciated, as after multiple mock drafts my team is not my ideal and I could use the help.
