Young and stupid worked well for me when I was your age.  Not in fantasy baseball, of course, but that wasn't at the top of my priority list.

I plan to come in strong on the Pujols bidding war.  I'm young and stupid and need to make a splash early on.

Cherington has already said that the Red Sox aren’t bidding.  The Yankees are an obvious possibility, but they haven’t had the best of luck with Japanese pitchers.  Most importantly, Mr. Epstein has a track record with bidding on Japanese players and although Dice-K didn’t work out well, Darvish is the type of young player (27) that he loves to build around.  
 
One of two possibilities here:  (i) he signs in the NL and you’re out of luck or (ii) he signs with the Yankees and turns into what nearly all Yankees pitchers turn into – junk.  
 
The good news is that if he signs with the Yankees you’ll definitely be able to pawn him off on Blocker before he completely loses value.  As I recall, Mr. B was all over Irabu.

Darvish is going to be a Cub.

Just don't bother to bid on Darvish.  He's under contract.

Mr. Pujols is closely identified with the team that all Chicago sports fan have 
grown up hating.  I suppose this could lead to him being on Fruiter's team as 
well, but John generally keeps his powder dry for prospect pitchers.    
 
On the other hand, on further reflection, Klein's $1 pitcher strategy (better 
known as the bad pitcher strategy), will free up plenty of dollars for the 
bidding extravaganza.

Quintessential Blocker player.  I'll set the over/under at $52 and give
2-1 odds that he ends up on the Bombers.  4-1 odds that he doesn't end up on the 
Red Hots.  No way that Rich spends what it will take.  The long shot here is 
Dennis.  You never know how these young guys will react.
