Decent. Pretty Yankee heavy don't you think?




Only two closers? You might be lacking a little power outside of Cabrera and Giambi.

My team:

C Mauer
1B Howard
2B Roberts
3B Arod
SS Freddy Sanchez
OF Baldelli
OF Ichiro
OF Dunn
Util Hafner
Util Fielder
Bench Drew
Bench Griffey
Bench Sosa
Bench Tracy

Pitchers
Oswalt
Cain
Schmidt
Bedard
Beckett
Maine

Relievers
Papelbon
Lidge
Gordon
Dempster
Weathers

Yankee heavy but isn't that the best team to draw stat producers from? I have two closers but I also have Zumaya who is going to get some strikeouts. I know I lack power so I'm trying to move something to get an outfield power guy. I almost had this guy convinced trading Inge for Thome but he backed out last minute.

I like your team a lot. Only thing would be I would try to move Baldelli. That guy gets injured every day. I wouldn't want that liability. It would be like drafting Pavano to me at least. -Jitpal

nope I have Zumaya

Well I did some tooling around my team.
I dropped:
Kei Igawa
Josh Phelps
Gregg Zaun
Nick Punto

I picked up:
Brian Bruney
Conor Jackson
Mark DeRosa
Rafael Soriano

I am also waiting on waivers to clear on Austin Kearns and my waiver priority is 1 so I should get him unless something stupid happens. So my team should look like this tomorrow:

Posada
Giambi
Cano
Miguel Cabrera
Hanley Ramirez
Granderson
Markakis
DeRosa
Inge
Betemit
Conor Jackson
Carlos Quentin(DL)
Austin Kearns(Waivers)

Bonderman
Holladay
K-Rod
Zumaya
Wickman
Bruney
Soriano
Arroyo
Daniel Cabrera

Thoughts? -Jitpal

Well I just made a trade. I traded Zumaya, Arroyo and Markakis for Jermaine Dye and Mike Cameron. I'll add in another starter, I'm looking at Boof Bonser or Joe Blanton to add once the trade goes through. I'll also probably add Johnathon Broxton to replace what Zumaya gave.

That will leave me with this team:
Posada
Giambi
Cano
Miguel Cabrera
Jhonny Peralta
Curtis Granderson
Austin Kearns
Conor Jackson
Hanley Ramirez
Mark DeRosa
Brandon Inge
Carlos Quentin
Jermaine Dye
Mike Cameron

Francisco Rodriguez
Bob Wickman
Brian Bruney
Rafael Soriano
Daniel Cabrera
Jeremy Bonderman
Roy Halladay

So I'll probably drop Inge and pick up either Blanton or Bonser and Broxton. Thoughts? -Jitpal
