Did anyone see Torii Hunter get blasted in the grill by Zack Greinke?
I like your team, i would say it is a 12 team mixed league by your roster.I would only suggest keeping an eye out for a better Shortstop , other than that , i think your team looks great ..
Love...Russel Martin, and Adrian Gonzalez, Kinsler and Sizemore as your base for production on offense. I'd say Hillenbrand, LoDuca, and C.Wilson are expendable if somebody in free agency gets hot, or someone gets dropped that is clearly better.
Don't touch that pitching staff, except maybe pick up Jonathan Broxton for insurance on Saito, you'll probably need it!
Good Luck
What are the average MLB draft salaries per round?
I say that you team is on the right track so-far.Do you think Dice-K is another Hiedo Nomo / Chan Ho Park / Kaz Ishii?
not bad. i played college baseball with freddy sanchez. i cant belie he won the batting championship last year.First of all, get rid of Craig Wilson and Shea Hillenbrand. They aren't doing anything but taking up space. If you are lucky enough to have Philip Hughes still available, SNATCH HIM UP! Sure, he may be out 4-6 weeks, but if you saw his abilities last night before the hammy injury, you would be in love with him! Also, within the next few days, Hunter Pence will be available on Yahoo off the waivers ... GET HIM! If there is any way to improve your 3rd base situation, I would suggest that. Beltre isn't the answer there and Sanchez is nothing but BA ... he won't get you many HRs and RBI.
But honestly, not a bad team. You could tweak it to make is a powerhouse. GOOD LUCK!
I dont know if you drafted John Maine or not, but that is a good pick up right there. He was a huge sleeper than I think can keep it up for the Mets. Jake Peavy is obviously doing well, leading the Majors in Strike Outs. You have a decent pitching staff. I think you could use one more closer and maybe drop a player like paul laduca or Meredith, although he is good if you use the innings pitched category. Kinsler is a nice pick, he is playing well right now, though I dont know how long he can keep it up, I would watch him. Grady SIzemore is obviously another big threat for your lineup. I would do some tuning up with a couple people like Hillenbrand, you can do better there i think. There are still some guys out there that people arent paying attention too. I just picked Gary Matthews Jr. up in my league because everyone gave up on him. Look around! Good luck with the season!
