Draft strategy 101 Pitchers catchers, and short stops only, please. Pitchers need to be half of your picks, mostly starters. They have a unique skill set. Catchers also have a unique skill set. they also can be converted to 3B, 1B and RF. Short stops also play the most important defensive position, next to catcher. They can be converted to 3B, 2B, and any outfield position. On a side note. Make most of them if not all left handed or switch hitters. Just the geometry of the game.
