If anyone out there is not tired of putting in their 2 cents on others teams feel free to let me know your thoughts on this one. It is my first 80 mil. 07 effort. Any input is appreciated!

Gonna see a few lefty bats? :roll:

Just wondering because I only use 1 lefty, sometimes all RH's. I'll use 2 when there are a good # of lefty bats.

Not too crazy about the tail end of your rotation OR your main RP's. While I like Burton and Marte, I'd like to see one of them as a R2.

Never seen Iguchi used much.

Greene will give you some pop, but expect a sub .250 BA, especially with your division parks.

Prefer to use Granderson in LF. I know he's only a +1, but I just like a 0 to a - arm in CF.

Thanks Visick !
Always good to hear from a vet.
Made a few changes before I had to set the team yesterday afternoon. I had to build my pitching staff thru waivers and FA as I only recieved 2 that I had wanted in the draft so I did the best I could piecing it together. I know Greene isnt going to hit alot for ave. but am hoping he gives me some pop at home.

IMHO...

Your D could be a problem. You have a 4(25) at 3B a 3(17) at 2B, 3's in the COF and a CF with a plus arm.While your 1B is a decent 2 the 10 E's is kinda high and will only be compounded by the other holes in your D. SS and C are the only B+ spots on your D.

Also, I see 4 everyday players who could be gone for 15 games. one...no biggie, 2 probably can get by....3 or more equals a lot of lost runs.

I think you are over spending on your pen. I would pare down to a 10 man staff....try to funnel 300+ innings btwn Jenks(?) and Percival. Cut Wickman for a .5 back up 1B/3B...you need one. Cut Burton for a L/R(1) specialist...say F.Francisco, Mahay, Yates etc. I would also do the same with S.Rivera....cut for a R(1) specialist. Cameron can then be used strickly for mop up as he is a R2 with mostly walks instead of base advancing hits with no power off his card. I would consider downgrading from Jenks to a closer such as Cordero, Corpas, Valverde, Fuentes and F-Rod if any of these are still around. You should end up with an extra 2-3 million to up grade your shallow rotation. Garland, Guzman and Bautista are meat. Or spend that coin to upgrade your subpar 2B situation.

Thanks splinter,
I made some changes to my staff but not sure if I am going to be able to do anything about my defense. This is by no means a good team and I will probably end up making changes to it when my patience wears out and patience is by no means one of my strong points :lol:
