I will get around to rating other people's teams tomorrow as I can
But I am in a 14 team Head 2 Head league and here is my roster...

C - Kendal
1B - Texiera
2B - B Boone
3B - Lowell
SS - Reyes
IF - K Matsui
IF - Glaus
OF - Vlad
OF - V Wells
OF - Burnitz
Util - J Jones
Util - T Martinez
Util - Baldelli

SP - Pedro
SP - M Morris
RP - Looper
RP - Urbina
P - Pineiro
P - Kazmir
P - O Hernandez


Bench - K Mench
Bench - S Ponson
Bench - B Lawrence

Categories are...
R H 1B 2B 3B HR RBI SB BB AVG OBP SLG
IP W L CG SHO SV ER BB K ERA WHIP K/9

Any suggestions at all? There isn't a lot in the Free Agency Pool so to speak... but how do you think I fared?

I know I need another closer but any help is appreciated.

I would throw Baldelli back, as he is not going to be playing anytime soon. You are going to get killed every week in the BA category. You only have one closer, who is not reatlly that good. Your top two starters are injury risks, as is El Duque and Kazmir might not even be in the rotation and if he is, is playing for a team that will struggle to score runs for him. I'd look to deal Lowell for a mid tier closer, move Glaus to 3B, Tino to IF and Mench to U. Keep Urbina active in one of the P spots for the ERA and WHIP and occassional save, dump Ponson for a reliever like Kiko Calero, Juan Rincon or Brazoban, who will help in WHIP and ERA plus vulture some wins and a handful of saves. I'd probably look to move Burnitz for someone who does not kill your BA as well. You'll have enough power in Vlad, Mench and Glaus to keep you there.

Definately move Mensch to the actives and try to get better pitching
