First time in pitchers park and I'm struggling to figure out if this time will work or not. Playing in Kaufmann. No DH league and will have to use Freel at 2b and Cantu at 3B.

Can you win in a pitchers park with those deficiency's. Any advice will be appreciated

15-6 at home - terrible on the road so far - many homerun parks (in my league) including 2 in my division (Cellular) - my defense may be about average since I'm using Jones at 3rd base (but he's paid off in offensive production) - He's the kind of poor postition player who'd be your best bet in a place like Kaufmann (on base alot mainly, more speed would be better but I needed more power due to the stadiums in my league) - also look for guys who can bunt, hit & run, and steal well without grounding into alot of DP's. I don't know what this info is worth but I'm also curious about what the other players feel.

They both must go. I used Cantu in MM, where he should at least excel offensively. He was terrible both offensively and defensively. I cut him and I hardly ever cut anyone. They are just too bad offensively. You have nice starters and don't really need to score that much too win.

I cut both Freel and Canty, replacing them with Beltre and Jose Castillo. Choosing to go with defense over offense. Still thinking that I have a little bit of tinkering that I still must do. But at least I know I won't get killed by my defense, I just hope that I have enough Offense to get by.
