Finally took a look at the old squad. Wow... Dropping 10 should be no trouble, but boy do I need some help!

SP: P. Martinez, Beckett, D. Davis, Seo, D. Cabrera, O. Perez, Wakefield
RP: Timlin, Heilman, Street, Dempster, W. Ledezma
CL: Guardado --Quintuple Yikes!

c- Varitek, Larue, Barrett, Y. Molina
1b- Helton, M. Sweeney (DH), M. Jacobs
2b- B. Roberts, B. Hall, N. Punto
3b- Beltre, Youklis, C. Blake, C. Koskie, B. Inge
ss- Rollins, J. Reyes
lf- Burrell, Ibanez, J. Patyon, B. Anderson
cf- DeJesus, R. Johnson
rf- B. Giles, Taguchi, J. Tyner, S. Green

Let's see how the SnowAntelopes look as we start spring training:

1B- Ryan Howard, Adam LaRoche, Sean Casey
2B- Luis Castillo, Richie Weeks
SS- Bobby Crosby, Edgar Renteria, Jason Barlett; Jhonny Peralta
3B- Freddy Sanchez, Hank Blalock, Andy Marte
C- AJ Pierzynski, Dioner Navarro, Jose Molina, Sal Fasano
LF- Jason Bay, Garret Anderson
CF- Mark Kotsay, Jeremy Reed
RF- Vlad the Impaler,
DH- Carlos Lee, Nick Swisher
UTL - Wes Helms, Jason Michaels

SP- Burnett, Buehrle, Oswalt, Chris Young, Lilly, Tim Hudson, Marquis
RP- Helling, Cotts, Shields, Rincon, Putz, Brandon League

Looks like there will be positional battles at SS and catcher. Biggest needs seem to be a good defensive SS and an upgrade in CF. Starting pitching also could use another strong arm. The bullpen looks solid, and the bench has plenty of pop.

Everyone but Howard and Vlad are available in the right deal, so all inquiries welcomed!

AF, sent you a PM 8)

Bob, quick note, the rosters don't reflect a trade between AF and my team last season Figgins should be in his roster and Murton should be in mine. -Just to avoid any confusions.

[Jack377]

The Brew Crew is ready for spring training:

1B- Mark Teixeira, Chase Utley, Prince Fielder
2B- Chase Utley, Ryan Freel, Jose Valentin
SS- Carlos Guillen, Yuniesky Betancourt
3B- Garret Atkins, Ryan Freel
C- Brian Schneider, Doug Mirabelli
LF- Ryan Freel, Cliff Floyd, Wily Mo Pena
CF- Gary Matthews, Ken Griffey
RF- Bobby Abreu, Wily Mo Pena, Aaron Guiel
DH- Ken Griffey, Wily Mo Pena
UTL - Ryan Freel, Jose Valentin

SP- Kevin Millwood, Brad Penny, Eric Bedard, Dave Bush, Kelvim Escobar
RP- Mike Gonzalez, Francisco Rodriguez, Jonathan Papelbon, Jose Valverde, Justin Speier, Jason Frasor, Ron Villone, Guillermo Mota

I've got a ton of quality relievers...if anyone is in the market, I'd be interested in better options in LF and behind the plate...

[blueiguana]

Hmm, this team aint so good (but then, being good hasn't really helped me in the past). Still working on the last couple of spots, but here's the general sense:

C: Mauer, V. Martinez, Laird or Molina
1B: Sexson, Lee, Dunn, maybe Shelton or Huff
2B: Giles
SS: Young
3B: A Rod, Encarnacion, Betemit
OF: Soriano, Kearns, Granderson, Thames, Bradley
SP: Kazmir, Haren, Sheets, Hernandez
RP: Ray, Cordero, Wheeler

As always, I'm open to trades.

[blueiguana]

I don't know when the new season will come on line, but I just want to let everyone know that I'll be out of town from Feb 17 through the 24th. If things come out next week, I apologize in advance for being the cause of delay.

[MICHAELTARBELL]

I don't think we will see them until March....

[ROBERTMAVIN]

Based on the combined records of the teams over the two 2006 seasons:
( League champion will draft 12th)

1) Sykes (65+66) 131
2) Kavistad (78+68 ) 146
3) akindian (74+73) 147
4) C2/Casey (73+77) 150
5) mtarbell (82+70) 152
6) AFdickie (65+90) 155
7) Jack377 (86+77) 163
8 ) Detroit T (82+82) 164
9) Cubit (93+80) 173
10) nythawk (82+93) 175
11) blueiguana (106+100) 206
12) bobm (86+96) 182

just a reminder... this is a straight draft and NOT a surpentine draft
( e.g. Sykes has first pick in alll 15 rounds of the draft )

another reminder and a rule we changed last year..
eveyone must protect 25 players..
