Answer 1

Well your team looks pretty good but i do see one thing that might be a problem. I see a lot of injury prone players on your team such as (Harden, Pettitte, Weeks,Thomas). If they stay healthy you should definately compete in your league. You might want to add a couple more starting pitchers and drop a couple of your bench players like Iguchi and Durham, i think they are the weakest.

Answer 2

rocco baldelli is way 2 injury prone. If u want to, u can keep him, but i suggest you drop him for a good pitcher, probably a reliever. Ryan Freel might b good and might not... I would drop/ trade him for a more constant player. Finally, I would trade Rich Harden for some newer constant pitcher on the rise while Harden's name is still good. besides that, you have a great team.

Answer 3

your pitching is below average. Your Hitting is Very Good. But don't worry about it, Closers are always changing, as soon as you hear that a closer has changed, try to pick him up, if possible. Young Pitchers are also constantly being brought up to the majors in the middle of the season, be on the look out. Scott Linecum is a good example of one those this season.

Answer 4

See it particularly is the reason i do no longer play six individual leagues. because of the fact no rely how sturdy your team is (and have confidence me brah your team is kick a$$), somebody is extra effectual. great names are not going that might actually assist you at present. its time to hit the waver twine and see who's available. seem adult males who've been on the DL all season, like Ben Sheets, or A.J. Burnett, they're going to extraordinarily help your strikeout numbers, i do no longer see any great ok adult males on your checklist. additionally seem to get Gagne if hes nevertheless a unfastened agent, he would be back next week and Danny Baez is gonna be out of a activity. may additionally decide to commerce him now. Your hitting is extraordinarily sturdy. in user-friendly terms difficulty i'm able to advise is removing Johny Gomes. sturdy participant, yet your weakest hyperlink. seem for some adult males like Prince Fielder or Omar Visquel who will shop the batting time-honored severe in the till spot, and upload the two homers or stolen bases respectively. and final yet no longer least pray. Pray that somebody on the 1st and 2nd place communities hit the DL. in case you're in 0.33 place with that team, there is no longer lots extra you're able to do yet pray.

Answer 5

It would help me to know how many managers are in your league but, I believe I would look for a multi-position player such as F. Sanchez; Aurilia; Figgins, etc. to insure that I wouldn't be playing with an open position too often.

Answer 6

Pitching wins in fantasy baseball, add another good starter or closer.
