Reflecting on the AL LABR auction, I made adjustments to my roster budget to balance my hitting and pitching. By allocating $167 for hitting and $93 for pitching, I aimed to diversify my team. I strategically grouped players with similar skills to avoid overspending and added flexibility with utility players. Overall, my investments in players like Randy Arozarena, Adolis Garcia, and Luis Robert paid off, providing value and depth to my team.
In pitching, I stuck to my bold predictions, selecting pitchers like Valdez, Pivetta, and Cease at what I deemed as fair prices. While some projection systems were pessimistic, I chose to trust my analysis and gut instincts. Relievers like Munoz and Stewart were speculative picks with potential upside, adding depth to my bullpen. With a mix of established stars and up-and-coming prospects, I feel confident in my team's ability to compete for another title.
