When you list your salary, added player, cut player and new salary, also please list which league this is in, so I can keep things straight.

New: $131,895,347

I need pitching 100 times more than hitting, but the pitchers that are available weren't much better (or any better) than what I already have. Therefore, MORE OFFENSE!

My team finished 4th in pitching and 16th in hitting in the previous round. So, choosing a hitter (especially an awesome one) was the obvious way to go.

Now that all the round 1 drafts are over, I will admit that my strategy (in most of the round 1 drafts) was to go heavy on offense and light on starting pitching for the specific purpose of being able to get a more impactful upgrade during the mini-draft. Seems like footballmm11 had the same idea as he went big on offense in pretty much all the round 1 drafts. (You will note that I haven't taken a single hitter in any of the mini-drafts, although I did focus a bit more on pitching in the later eras).
