KENSHIN, WATCH ROY, SEE HOW IT'S DONE

Kenshin Kawakami was less than stellar against the Phillies and Roy Halladay, giving up a two-run homer to Jayson Werth and three other hits in three innings.  Halladay, for his part, struck out five in three scoreless innings.  This is pretty much a microcosm of how I expect things to go this year.  We might see this matchup more than once during the season, in fact, with similar results.  I need better pitching, fast.

So, naturally, I'm going to draft a position player with my last pick!  Well, maybe not.  Chris Withrow of the Dodgers is still available.  He had some kind of elbow problem and missed almost all of 2008, then came back had good peripheral numbers in A and AA in 2009.  He's the highest guy left in the Basball Prospectus top 101 prospects.  Ok, I talked myself into it.  Withrow it is.  Another owner immediately e-mailed me that I had taken his pick.
