Well, not really an app... it's a set of auto-updating spreadsheets for Numbers (the Mac equivalent of Excel), but it's just easier to call it an app. I needed to do a mock to debug the app, but I also wanted to see how well a "Studs and Scrubs" approach would work while sticking to Grey's Pitcher Pairing strategy. I'm pretty pleased with the results. Any and all comments welcome.

ALSO, if there are any iPad users out there who would like to test my app out over the next week, please post and I'd be happy to email it to you.

12-Team, Mixed, $260

C - Geovany Soto
1B - Joey Votto
2B - Danny Espinosa
3B - Jose Bautista
SS - Emilio Bonifacio
MI - Ian Desmond
CI - Kendrys Morales
OF - Jacoby Ellsbury
OF - Carlos Gomez
OF - Ryan Braun
OF - Carlos Quentin
OF - Lorenzo Cain
UTIL - Yoenis Cespedes

P - Yovani Gallardo
P - Jordan Zimmerman
P - Brandon Beachy
P - Brandon Morrow
P - Jonathan Sanchez
P - Derek Holland
P - Vance Worley
P - Frank Francisco
P - Sergio Santos
BE - Jim Johnson
BE - Matt Thornton
BE - Juan Abreu

Even though I drafted a quarter of the Top 20 players, I was able to follow the Pitcher Pairings and even upgrade my last SP to Holland/Worley. Not only that, I was also able to auto-buy my last 8-10 picks by waiting to fill in my offense with deep discounts, allowing me to take 5 closers and not scrape the very bottom of the barrel at any position.

Carlos Gomez in your outfield or Carlos Gonzalez? Not loving two Nat infielders, but I do like them separately. It's not terrible. Like your pitching slightly more than your hitting, and your hitting is obviously still solid with those top 20 guys...Elssbury and Bonifacio worries me a little then Cain... Feels a little too stealy. Again, it's still a solid team, assuming that's Carlos Gonzalez...

If you want me to look at your team, post the team. Don't post a link to another site where the team is.
Have you given me all the info I need to judge your team? The number of teams in the league is a good start for the big overall questions.
Is your league H2H? Roto?
I don't know who's on your waivers. Don't just ask me who you should pick up. Give me names to choose from.
If you only have one team, post your team in your signature with the league parameters.
I don't know every single matchup for next week, so if you want me to choose a player for the following week and you think the matchups are important, tell me who they're facing.

You have two options:

1. ON YOUR iPAD (IN SAFARI) you can go here:

http://www.kevinkwalter.com/draft_app.numbers

Now you should see a preview of the app. Tap anywhere on the app and then choose Open in “Numbers” from the menu that appears.

2. ON YOUR COMPUTER you can go here:

http://razzball.com/i-drafted-the-best- ... em-apples/

If you look towards the bottom of the article (or on the “2012 Fantasy Baseball Rankings” page) you’ll see a link that Grey has added to download the tool directly from the site.

Thanks, Grey Hound. It was Gonzalez, but this was a way old mock (and we actually discussed it in the comments of a post already). Guess it popped up to the top when someone replied... sorry for taking up more of your time.
