Any input welcome on a Petco team:

I'm uncomfortable with Oswalt at the top (AD), but I'm not sure I see value in downgrading.
If I were to, two flags I have are Burroughs DHing against Righties -- any suggestions on upgrades? And if I have enough RP.
Thanks in advance.

I am still a bit green in this (only 1 2005 team). But, I really like your team for Petco.

[quote:effb664978="Aray0113"]Then you're set defensively up the middle.
Make sure you've got 2-3 power hitters to drive in runs, and surround them with players with high OBP, and you're ready to roll.[/quote:effb664978]
So it would be better to get a couple of high OBP power guys than just Bonds right? Bonds has the best numbers but he's only one guy.

Sorry for the misunderstanding. I don't have Bonds right now but I was considering trying to get him. For the money he costs I could probably get a few guys though eh? Much of my team has little power so I think it would be better to get a few guys than just Bonds. Would you agree?

Rant, you pitching looks ok, but I'd start Vazquez in the first game, i.e. you don't want Oswalt going up against RJ, Santana, etc who will undoubtetly be started in their game 1's.
What other OF's are left 6 mil or under? I'm not too fond of Rivera in Petco, and Swisher's 25 errors are very scary. I'm guessing you have a W Delgado/Young platoon at DH?
