ok, i know i could get a lot for pujols or A-rod, should i consider dealing them. is there any deals i should look to make. where should i go from here?(i'm in first but only by a 1.5 games)

[biglfty]

c'mon, i need some input

[LeftyQB]

I think you could add strength at 2B and OF. Maybe package Sabbathia with someone. Sabbathia had a great first half...but with his weight, he could fade during the dog days.
Good Luck

i'm thinkin about goin after brett boone. what kind of offer should i propose?

[pkarr5000]

first of all, lose santiago, ibanez and unless this is a keeper league, trade for a better second baseman. You're pitching is really good but I think you should go after another closer and the one that comes to mind is keith foulke. trust me dude. I love the A's and if you havent noticed, the A's are all about second halves. Get Keith Foulke and package anyone to get him. The A's will explode in the second half and youll be so excited to be part of that. Youre OF is pretty weak too. You might wanna upgrade to a chipper jones kinda player or maybe eric byrnes. Other than that, looks good dude!

ok, what 2b should i go after? what should i give for him? who can i find better than santiago, fairly cheap? and, just so ya know, ibanez is gone as soon as sweeney is off the DL, i just didnt want to give up a lot for a 1B when i have one coming back soon after the allstar break. and what do you think i should give to try to get like a chipper jones?
thanks for the input.

what about eddie perez of the brewers...i think he is under rated and has been hitting lately.. jmo
