I just cannot figure out where to go with this team....Have a Mill to play with yet but I am stuck...

Would love to here some feedback on this team. Some of you out there seem to have this figured out much better than I do and I need your helpll

Thanks

I'd like to see a better closer than Farnsworth.

Why have 5 SP's when you already have 4 SP who are *?
(Not crazy about Loaiza here btw...)

Love Carrasco in this set. He should get 300 innings of relief work. Quick hook everybody except him.

Not crazy about Helton, Youkilis or Rowand.

Well personally, I don't like the team. You are a neutral park with 3 hardcore pitcher parks in your division. I don't like Helton, rowand, Youk or Hall in this set.

I would prefer Melhuse at C vs R (olivio vs L is fine). i'd rather see Casey or Overbay at 1b, with Duffy, Meuller at Cf and 3b. I'd then upgrade Loiza to Burnett or Chacin, and Get Roberts at 2b over Hudson (I like Hudson but had a man-crush on that Roberts card in that set). You could then go Roberts, Duffy, Abreu, Manny, Hafner, 1b, Meuller, Melhuse, Everett vs R.

But that's me, because Duffy and Roberts were 2 of my most used guys in that set, always did well for me.

I was hoping someone would tell me to dump Helton....As for my 5th starter...there are 2 minute mades and another team that is loaded with right handed hitters. I thought I could get about 12 starts out of Escobar during those series and use him out of the pen in between, Is this a bad idea? Helton is already gone...

But those are NOT in your division. In your division vs RHP you would expect to see 5, 4 and 2 RH hitters, not worth it.

Geekor you are right on again, I do believe
