Pitching Strategy; Can it Make a Championship Team/Contender?

Dr. T

I have been toiling with the idea of drafting with my focus being on pitching and coming up with a top three pitching squad that are all established, true, ACES. Talking the likes of Halladay, Greinke, J. Santana, Justin Verlander, CC Sabathia, Dan Haren, Tim Lincecum, and Wainwright (some would put Cliff Lee here, call it a hunch but I am not sure he is going for the three-peat I also am worried about him being injured already. That being said I have him as my “ace” in an AL only league, YIKES!) If you have three of these pitchers in the first six rounds or better than how can you compete with the likes of people with a 1,2,3 of Braun, Rollins, and Kinsler (I know Rollins is one that is questionably over the hill but if you haven’t heard Rollins is talking about stealing 50 bases this season and injury riddled Kinsler who was 30-30 last year at a position that is always coveted.) Can you do this? I think I am going to but something like it to the test and see what comes up.

Alright I want to hear from everybody. Does it have potential? Have you ever fully committed to a pitching heavy strategy and has it worked out? LETS HEAR IT! I am going to post my draft results shortly afterwards and see what you think.
