Starting Lineup - 5th
Top 3 OPS team. Ranked 5, 6, 7, 8 in the other 4 categories. This lineup is going to be competitive each and every week. I was really impressed with the youth in this team, with the only guy on the wrong side of 30 is Uggla. Great lineup for a keeper league.
Players I like - Ike, Lawrie, Braun, Heyward
Players I don't like - Cozart

Pitching - 3rd

As good as the lineup is, the pitching may be better. Good mixture of starters and relievers that will all produce in each category. I think Wainwright comes back strong and I believe in Matt Moore. If Bedard can stay healthy, and Morrow finally puts it all together, this team just might play for a championship.
Players I like - Bumgarner, Moore, Morrow, Betancourt
Players I don't like - Peavy, Farnsworth

Bench - 7th
Thin bench, but one that provides value. You have Trout, Dunn, and Gamel, which all will bring something to the team.

Overall - 4th (4.10)
Not much else needs to be said. If you have top 5 hitting and pitching, your team is probably gonna be pretty dang good.

Starting Lineup - 3rd
One of the best hitting lineups out there. Wasn't ranked below 5th in any category, and was ranked 3rd in runs, rbi's, and sb's. Have 3 guys that could go 20/20 without a problem. Good all around lineup.
Players I like - Goldschmidt, Longoria, Hamilton
Players I don't like - Molina

Pitching - 4th
Good starting rotation from top to bottom and even was able to add a couple of top notch closers. Should definitely be competitive in all categories each week.
Players I like - Cain, Latos, Hanrahan
Players I don't like - Ogando, Lewis

Bench - 5th
Was also able to grab a great bench with some upside with guys like Smoak, Rasmus, Sanchez.

Overall - 3rd
Not too bad for not being there for the draft. As the ranking suggests, I think this is one of the top teams in the league and will make the playoffs if there are not any terrible injuries or boneheaded decisions.
