Pitching-heavy. I need some outfielders and catchers. Overall I would rate this current group as mediocre. The top is nice but it drops off quickly. As you can see I like drafting pitchers and infielders, but the last outfielder I got who did anything was Granderson. Pridie still has a chance I guess. Need to get more power too in the '08 draft.
