Just a real quick glance at your team so far, so take what I say with a grain of salt. I would consider these points:
1. I would want a guy in my pen that is good vs RHs better than what you have now. Maybe swap one of those two LH pen guys for a RH?
2. Would NOT use Rice at C in anything other than a slugging park, and then only as part of a platoon. There should be many better choices at C for you than Rice?
3. I like Valentine and Jones a lot. But, I would be tempted to swap one of them out for a LH bat, depending on what's available on the FA wire. Selkirk, Keller, Oliva/Clines platoon, even S. Rice, perhaps? I also get nervous when both my corner OFs are 15 game injury risks.
4. Don't see a real good choice in your current lineup for a #2 guy vs LH pitchers.
The only ATG2 champion team I have in Sportsman's 46 is a $100m cap team, so I don't think it would have much value for you if I posted the link to it.
Of course, I don't know what the other parks in your division are, so that may influence some of the above points. :)

I have to agree with modmark. You don't need both Orosco and Martinez. Turn one of them into Gene Nelson, Tincup, or equivalent.
I also agree that having 2 15 game injury chances at the corner OF spots is trouble, and you could use another left handed bat. Selkirk or Keller would be good fits except for the 15 game injury issue. I doubt Yaz would be there, but Goose Goslin or B. McCosky would work in LF.

Nice draft! I agree with the boys, I would lose Rice. Best guys for nuetral:
Cochren
Sanguillen
Beatty
I can't pull up the free agents for some reason but see if those guys are there.
I also agree with the bullpen advice. Also look for Lown, Dayley, J.Hughes to go along with a Tincup and Martinez or Orosco. Adding Joe Jackson and Cuyler would make it my dream team!
Dean
Cochren
Sanguillen
Beatty

finally a park I actually can do well in...
my first team and first title was there: http://fantasygames.sportingnews.com/baseball/stratomatic/atg2/team/team_other.html?user_id=4064
this one lost in the semi's: http://fantasygames.sportingnews.com/baseball/stratomatic/atg2/team/team_other.html?user_id=30907
and this team just made paydirt and will start the playoffs mon: http://fantasygames.sportingnews.com/baseball/stratomatic/atg2/team/team_other.html?user_id=96887
anyways, bsially my theory is... you can use anyone! the best part of the park, is is right dab in the middle, so almost anyone works! then you can tailor you team to your opponents, and really do a good job!
btw, I think your team really need another hitter vs righties, too many giys are tilted to kill lefites, unless your division is loaded with lefties, then more power to you!

Tried to draft both of them and missed.
Other parks in division are Ebbetts '53, Fenway '67 and polo '11.
I agree with above, would like to have a different RF...I am fourth in waivers, and COBB is still on the fa! Don't know if he will last 3 rounds, but I am gonna try for him anyway.
If i do not get him, (which is likely), I am gonna try and get beggs for Orosco (although geekor I see Orosko had a nice season for you!), sanguillen for rice.
RF, other than the fact that Cobb is still there, what is left in RF is pretty thin. sam rice is there, but with 2 hitter parks in division, i would like someone with more POWER. Could swap jones for Goslin....

MT,
Here's my advice ... Don't listen to anything I have to say about Neutral Parks!!!
Cause it seems I can only win in Extreme Parks ....... :lol:
But, here it is anyways:
Love Dean and Hughson as your 1 & 2, Grove is fine as your 3, but I'm not so sure about Lolich as your 4. Righties might pound him in your park.
Don't like your relievers at all, sorry.
On the bright side, I like your lineup except for Gardner (Steinfeldt or Collins would be major upgrades) and Plummer (you need a lot better backup to Rice).
