I am ending the first week in my league. I started off very slow offensively, I am still last in my league in RS. I have done some upgrades, doubled my run output against an opponent that I have already played twice. Over the last 2 days, I have added Gantner at 2B, Dykstra in CF and just today Hargrove at 1B. I play in Dodger Stadium.

I now have $3M left over. Since my catcher's aren't hitting their weights, I thought I could reduce the cost there as well by seeing if I can pay a little less for throwing range and defense.

Now I am not sure where to upgrade. I don't think there are many SP*'s left. I was thinking of an upgrade to Gary Matthews. Guerrero, Puckett, Dawson and Luzinksi are all out there. Any thoughts on these guys or any hidden gems?

Thanks

Steve

Check out Guerrero and Dawson to see if either has has been on another team for an injury reveal. Either or both are big O contributors. I would suggest dumping Stewart as he is out of the Jack Morris camp.. lots of wins in real life with mediocre pitching stats.

I like your team name... I have had 2 teams called [b:8b8bcf1ab2]Third Street Bullies.[/b:8b8bcf1ab2] One lost in the semis and one won a championship.

I would not drop Stewart, he is going good and can be good sometime. You have to let guys play. 18 games in not enough stats to know what is going on. Starters need 6 starts and hitter at least 100 AB. Let things shake out for 9-12 more games.

Thanks. I will try a little patience. The $3mi is going to be burning a hole in my pocket this next week.
