I just drafted my World Championship of Fantasy Baseball team in Vegas this morning. It's a 14-team mixed league with standard offense, but 10 pitchers, two of which have to be starters and two relievers. I picked sixth. Here are the results:
| Pound | Player | Pos |
| 1. | Alex Rodriguez | 3B |
| 2. | Dustin Pedroia | 2B |
| 3. | Justin Upton | OF |
| 4. | Rickie Weeks | 2B |
| 5. | Jay Bruce | OF |
| 6. | Colby Rasmus | OF |
| 7. | Billy Butler | 1B |
| 8. | Mariano Rivera | RP |
| 9. | Geovany Soto | C |
| 10. | Matt Wieters | C |
| 11. | Ted Lilly | SP |
| 12. | Starlin Castro | SS |
| 13. | Trevor Cahill | SP |
| 14. | Torii Hunter | OF |
| 15. | Edinson Volquez | SP |
| 16. | Gavin Floyd | SP |
| 17. | Brandon League | RP |
| 18. | Edwin Jackson | SP |
| 19. | Jeff Niemann | SP |
| 20. | Ian Stewart | 3B |
| 21. | Seth Smith | OF |
| 22. | Derek Holland | SP |
| 23. | Homer Bailey | SP |
| 24. | Justin Masterson | SP |
| 25. | Randy Wells | SP |
| 26. | Cliff Pennington | SS |
| 27. | Lyle Overbay | 1B |
| 28. | Sean Burnett | RP |
| 29. | Sergio Romo | RP |
| 30. | Kosuke Fukudome | OF |
| 31. | Matt Joyce | OF |
| 32. | Andrew Cashner | RR |
A few notes: I didn't take a starting pitcher until the 11th round in Ted Lilly. My strategy was to build a strong offense, get one
top closer and fill in from there. For the most part it worked. The only regret I had was in the 31st round I took Joyce, a trendy sabermetric pick, rather than Chris Davis who has far more upside. Davis went early in the 32nd, and I grabbed Andrew Cashner who locked down the No. 5 job for the Cubs while qualifying as a relief pitcher for purposes of this league.
