That is a solid team. The only weaknesses that I see are a lack of power and you could use another closer. I would also cancel that deal. Burnett is a much better option than Chipper. :-?

Isn't there anyone better than Lackey on the WW??

You could get better than chipper for burrnet.. I would try to upgrade over Rowand.. though he might turn out solid..

as lofonzo said you do need another power hitter, you jsut have rolen.

I like your SPs, maybe deal one (burnett or hudson or maybe see if theres a mets fan who wants benson) for a top closer

Pretty solid team all around. You need some more power as i wouldn't trust Lee, Guillen, Rowand, and Mourneau to all have career years. It looks like you'll have to upgrade in the OF. i agree that your best tradebait will be a top SP. You could use another closer eventually, but you might can get by with a waiver closer like Tsao, Speier, or Dempster. OF should be a priority to soup up the run production.
