You probably know this, but you're hitting is very good and your pitching is really questionnable.

I highly doubt anyone is going to pick Denorfia off of waivers unless he starts with three homers in the first week. I'd drop him for another pitcher. Look for another SP with some upside (the Dodgers usually have good SP that fly under the radar) or a top middle reliever. Or a closer if one is available, because you have two of the five worst.

In terms of trading, I would probably look to move Pierre. You don't have to do it now though. Maybe wait a month or two, pick up some of his steals, then trade him for a SP.

You're the Reds fan- any faith in Weathers? I have minimal faith in him (also one of the five worst) but I think he's the best option for the moment.

I also like the following guys from your list:
M. Morris (SF - SP)
J. Seo (LAD - SP)
B. Penny (LAD - SP)
K. Rogers (Det - SP)- would not start him day 1 but he usually is better in the first half of the year than second
S. Linebrink (SD - RP)
J. Duchscherer (Oak - RP)
K. Farnsworth (NYY - RP)
J. Rincón (Min - RP)
R. Betancourt (Cle - RP)

And as a bonus, keep your eye on Fernando Cabrera of Cleveland. Wickman is an injury risk.

Cabrera is available. As for Weathers, I dion't see him keeping the role of closer. I see Wagner or Coffey in the long run.

Thanks for your advice.
