NFBC Week #14 FAAB Results

This week is brought to you by the "Pick a Herrera" club.

I had to replace Dustin Pedroia this week in the Main Event. Good times.

- Nick Cassavetes ("Broccoli") is on my tail (so to speak) in my 15-team league, so enough about my overall standing. I'm thirsting for power - my hitting is really dying on the vine here. Top 3 draft picks were Justin Upton, Dustin Pedroia, Desmond Jennings. Nothing stinks more than hitting less than .200 for the week with no power. Not good. I went with Herrera as my top choice at second base over Ellis and Amarista.

- Kelvin Herrera is just a flier to see if Jonathan Broxton gets dealt.

- My pitching is a train wreck. Hopefully this the new additions work out. Dan Hudson can't assassinate my team any longer. Hopefully this works, or my name isn't Nathan Eovaldi.
