BTW its your typical yahoo roto league

Your offense is going to need some help. Pitching looks good. I'd start looking for offense on the WW.

Any suggestions on who I should be looking for and who I should be dropping to get them?

[Pogotheostrich]

I'd have no problem dropping Clark or Hermanson.
It's hard to say what to look for with knowing who is available.
I'd also look to trade one of your C. There isn't really a reason to carry 2.

[Milto]

SP is great.
RP is good.
Need offence.
I think you're carrying one SP to many. Hermanson is not closing so you can get rid of him too.

[shady81]

so out of my SPs which one should I try to trade the most, and what kind of return should I expect from them?

As for available players....Nick Swisher is the top player available on the WW according to yahoo's O-rank.....are there any rookies I should be looking for?

Or maybe just some names (not big names) in general I should keep an eye out for

sorry bout all the questions just trying to get an idea of what to look for

but thanks for the advice so far

Your offense needs some help. Pick up Siwsher. He wont hurt and he almost won rookie of the year last year. Check if Lirano from the Twins is avalable he will be good this year.

[shady81]

Well I did some looking around on here and it seems alot of people think Wilkerson will have a pretty good year in Texas so I found him on waivers and picked him up and dropped Hermanson.

Should i take a shot on Hermida if he is available?

[jz5178]

I would take a shot on Hermedia and Wilkerson was a nice pick up.

[shady81]

Well I got Hermida and dropped Clark....now the question is where do I play Wilkerson?
