ROTISSERIE: 2012 Straight Draft Guide

For those new to this annual exercise, our Straight Draft Guide is our attempt to coalesce the wealth of tools and analysis offered here at BaseballHQ.com into a coherent approach to your straight draft.

While we have add some new wrinkles every year (and this year is no exception), there is much in our approach that carries over from year to year. As such, we will rely heavily on our own prior work, and the work of others, by providing a significant number of links throughout this piece. In this way, this one column ends up being a touchstone of our straight draft coverage, combining both our evergreen concepts with our latest thinking, thus (hopefully) yielding a column that has utility for both veterans and new readers alike.
