First 2008 team. Looking for feedback

I would drop Upton and pickup Pearce to platoon with Shumaker and also a cheap SS with decent defense for a backup.

How picking Yunel back up for SS? He is who I had originally and is a 2, or pick up Orlando Cabrera. He is a 2 also. He may be the better option.



That would leave me with 1.94M to use toward another reliver or to hold on to. I dropped Geary and picked up Carassco also earlier.

I know some guys are dead against using a 3 in the middle infield. I do it all the time. I would use Theriot at SS on any team. I've had him twice, both times he hit for a BA between .280 & .290 and an OBP around .360. plus he can only be hurt for 3 games max.

That sounds good to me. I will grab either Yunel or Cabrera and keep as back up. Thanks A's for all of your feedback.

Thanks everyone for your responses. My team is set (fingers crossed). I will see how it goes.
