I am playing in the astrodome my question is can this team be succesfull as is? I lost Half of the players I wanted to draft and had to make alot of changes. If I could change parks I probably would.

This leauge also uses a dh[/url]

Deshaies and Bill White are pretty expensive bench players and won't get enough appearances to justify the cost. I'm also not a big fan of such extremes in rp and like to have at least someone more even the pen. I would get rid of both Deshaies and White for upgrades elsewhere. I would also drop Lyle or Smith for someone more balanced as HAL will make you pay.

it is a dh league so white will start at 1b and collins dh.

I would then look for a cheap backup for White against lh pitchers. It's obvious you're a big fan of defense but you could play Ripper at 1st and get a RH dh that plays any position.

im gonna play ripper at 1st and go with combs to lead off and dh

Now I would dump Dahlgren period and probably wouldn't keep Wert. Your vulnerable injury positions are LF and RF. Jackson & Furillo are quality players but you want decent under $1mil backups in case they go down for the dreaded 15.
