Answer 1

i like it -- u put an emphasis on pitching which is always good-- the only thing i might do is see if theres anyone out there better in the outfield--cameron is not much of a fantasy player--i like burrell if he gets his act together.

Answer 2

Assuming this is a H2H league, I think you are in a bit of trouble. Your pitching is decent and will win Saves, ERA, and Whip most of the time, but someone using the "volume approach" will beat you in wins and Ks most weeks. Consider adding some good SPs with low ERA and WHIP (Maddux or Glavine if still available) that might get you some wins.

However, your offense is a mess. I like Atkins, Jeter, and Ordonez. Sexson and Glaus are nice , but will kill our AVG. Sanchez may help some in this area, but is about useless in other categories. You can't work Thomas into the Util spot without losing what little power you have in Glaus (and he plays SS or 3B which are your best players). I don't think you have enough power to win HR or RBIs on most weeks, the only base stealer is Jeter (won't be enough), and you probably won't take Runs either.

Zaun should be OK. I have heard he will be playing more this year and he is a solid batter. If he does falter, look for Ross or Ianetta (Col rookie) in the FA pool.

Answer 3

Not too shabby, I love the closers and the depth of your bench - but look for some starting pitchers to emerge during the year that you can add to your staff - you may be in trouble if Dice-K doesn't pan out to all the hype and Rogers is not your answer as he doesn't strike out anyone... also, look to pick up a catcher like Russell Martin or David Ross instead of Zaun - those are 2 guys that can put up much better numbers that usually don't get drafted

Answer 4

nice team is ee ur a pitchers guy, nice choice!

8.7/10 overall
