Mike Trout is more than ready for the 2014 fantasy baseball season to start. Are you?

After drafting Ryan Braun at No. 11 overall and snagging underrated shortstop Everth Cabrera in the 8th round, I nearly picked Nelson Cruz to finish my outfield trip, but that would have required a name change to the Biogenesis Bunch. In short, I don't think there'll be much loss in performance from that group. Overall, I was thrilled with my five-man, 28-and-under rotation of Fernandez, Bumgarner, Gonzalez, Cashner and Moore, as it's smart to bet young on the mound. I may be a little light on speed but should mash enough homers and RBIs to compensate.
