Thats my team, what do u think? I know that im lacking in the closer department, any suggestions on how to change that, or is there something else i hav to change? I want honesty.

Answer 1

Teixera looks poised to have a comeback year. He had a bad first half last year, but his second half was pretty strong. He's still young too. Glaus is good for power but his BA is horrible. On the bright side though, I think he is switching to SS, so he will have eligibility there soon. Uggla is risky...I don't know if he is going to pull off the same miracle again this year. Outfield is a little weak too, but you can fix any problems here if you pay attention to the waiver wire and some of the young kids that are starting to break out (see Chris B. Young, Diamondbacks).

Pitching:

Your closing is obviously lacking. Keep an eye on Donnely with Boston. They don't have a set closer there yet and he has done this in the past with the Angels. Dice-K should do well, but we won't know until the season starts. Your other starters are average, but again, pay attention to the waiver wire.

Backups:

Crosby has been pegged as a break out player for the past few years now. I bit on him last year and got burned. However, I think that if he stays healthy he can have a big year. Granderson has promise and Jackson should be one of the best young players in the bigs.

Overall, I think you have a pretty solid base, but I would keep an eye on some of these guys and try to fill some holes along the way. Also, don't be afraid to cut bait on some of your riskier picks (like Uggla).

Answer 2

I HAVE THE PERFECT WAY TO UPGRADE YOUR TEAM!!!!

I really hope you listen to me here... Trade Dan Uggla for a good closer. You have Brandon Phillips who I think will have a better season than Uggla this year.

Dan Uggla has NEVER had a season like that before at any level of baseball. He hit just .256 after the all-star break, and I believe will be one of the biggest busts this season.

If Uggla repeats I will eat my shirt!!

Trust me on this... you can make a great trade with someone that overvalues Uggla, and get a top flight closer. Think JJ Putz level. but if you get Huston Street, fine...

Love the rest of your team... Good luck the rest of the way!

Answer 3

its not bad...your bench is not so good if someone gets injured for the season like Cralos Lee or Mark Teixera which are your homerun guys ..then...

Answer 4

not bad but just wanna let u no, akinori otsuka is not going to close anymore since texas has Eric Gagne

Answer 5

it looks like a playoff team
