I like this team which means it will finish 82-80. Any thoughts?

I like the team except Tram, would drop him for a cheaper option like Bowa and spend the $$ on SP/RP upgrade.

You are a little LH biased, depending on division makeup and LH leaning SPs, you may need to switch one of those guys out for a RH lefty killer. Picking which one is the difficult part, but probably JJ. :-)

15 lefty starters in league but only 3 in my division.

15 / 44 or about 33% is pretty good for your team and not un-typical, so you are fine with that.

Hope your team does well!
