Considering that Howard, A-Rod, and Reyes are all 1st round picks - I would say YES... unless this league has like 4 owners or the guy made some serious trades... Holliday, BJ Ryan, and Mo Rivera are also usually drafted high too...
Reply:I need more information. Like how many teams in the league. There is no way for one team to get A-rod, Howard, and Reyes on their team, unless he traded for them. If he did trade for them then look who he gave up to get them. If it looks like a bad trade then he probably does have two accounts, but you have to keep in mind that the rest of the owners in the league can veto any trade unless this guy is also the commish to.
Reply:Again, I would say depending on how many members in the league, would be absolutely yes. He is still vulnerable to someone who knows how to manage thier team and is very active. Those bats in the line-up is the scariest Ive ever seen w/o some kind of cheating going on. If this guy is the commish its a guranteed yes, if not look at the trade activity and petition the commish if anything weird comes to light.
Reply:I'd say at first glance yes, but than maybe not... His pitching staff is absolutely atrocious so maybe he made some really got trades for sp for offense.





However, it's most likely that he has two teams to which I never understood. Who wants to cheat to win a fantasy league. Isn't the best thing having your sleepers cash out for you and feeling proud of their accomplishments?
Reply:Is this a keeper league? If so, then it's possible he grabbed all those guys late last year. Otherwise, there is no way he could get Reyes, Howard and Arod on that team. Unless it's a 4 team league.





Also - that's a pretty good pitching staff with Bonderman, Lackey, Sabathia, and Papelbon.
