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

It is a 7-8. Keep an eye on Uggla and Glaus. Uggla might have what we call a "sophomore year"and Glaus has a very low BA. Move Granderson into OF in place of Austin Kearns. Keep Conor Jackson because he will be very good with the D-Backs this year. Also, keep Brandon Inge 20+ HRs this year and a nice BA awaiting him. Your pitching is fine. Oh, try and trade Bobby Crosby for Jason Barlett. If that doesn't work pick-up Stephen Drew or trade for him. Both good sleeper SS.

Answer 2

Assuming this is a head-to-head league, you are going to win HRs every week. I like your offense. Might lack a little speed though. Johan Santana. Enough said. Arroyo and Wang are pretty good. But the rest sucks. No closer. Vazquez and Padilla have a hella high ERA. Matsuzaka might be terrible, but might be good. So that's a 50-50 guy there. Bench is not well formed. I usually have all of my bench filled with pitchers. And even eith what you have as your bench players, they aren't good. But if Vazquez and Matsuzaka come through and you get a closer, you have a hella of a team. As for getting a closer, you have no good trade bait that you can afford to give away. I'll give this team a 6.8 out of 10. The SPs aren't solid and again, you have no closer. Good luck!

Answer 3

offense is ok. teix will have a rebound year, uggla was pretty good last year. glaus has power but also a .250 avg. so maybe you can trade him for a better closer. see if you can get someone like takashi saito, because he is ranked low but will be a good closer for the dodgers or try to get chris ray. my feeling is that you have too many offensive players. the way i look at things is this. offensive players play almost everyday and you cant start them all, so i personally would rather have many more pitchers than hitters because pitchers pitch every 5th day and the more pitchers you have the more you can start and the more you start the more chances you have of getting wins and Ks. also good to have many closers because they will lower era and whip while getting you many saves. thats why i always draft 3 or 4 good closers. i usually only have 1 or 2 offensive bench players. everything else is pitching.

Answer 4

simply put, no. position players are mediocre at best and you have no depth. pitching isn't bad, but again no depth. teixera is overrated and uggla is risky (last year was most likely over his true ability). i would trade away matzuzaka for an offense powerhouse. matzuzaka will be good in real life because he eats up innings and has a good era, but not necessarily for fantasy teams since he is not an above average k/9 or wins for that matter.

Answer 5

i would trade likie curtis and inge for like guardado or somethink like that

Answer 6

yes not bad but you could get a little better first basemen and pitching... but yea its ok
