Do I need more speed to win in an 8 man contest? Lugo was dropped because of injury, should I go grab him, and if so who to drop

Great team! U dont need to make any real moves now, and what you lack in speed, is made up for in HR's, which are worth more.

Sorry, I forgot to mention its a roto league, so the HR's aren't worth more. I am thinking of getting lugo or taveras

You have tons of power on offense. Loaded at every position there. Reyes is a good source of SB and Pujols will contribute a few but if you can add one more base stealer, you should be set on offense. Even for an 8 man league, nice work getting Pujols, Utley, MCab, Manny, and Tejada. All those guys are first or second round picks. Your team looks really good, but in small leagues, injuries usually play the biggest role because everyone has an allstar lineup. I like Tracy on your bench. He'll be solid there. SP looks awesome all the way through. Again, since this is a small league though, other team's staffs probably look pretty good too. You have plenty of aces and your last two guys, Haren and Mulder are both excellent middle rotation guys. RP looks good. Street and Turnbow are both stud closers. Dempster will be solid and Gordon will be too so long as he stays healthy. He threw a lot of innings the past few season in NY, so that's the biggest concern there.

Its a keeper, so I was lucky to have some very solid keepers, and a pretty solid draft. I am trying to sell high on shelton right now, who should I try to get for him

I think that really depends on the knowledge of the other owner. If they think he'll keep it up all year, you can aim pretty high. Otherwise, you might not get as much as you want. Not really sure where you'd try to upgrade at. Maybe try for a super-utility guy like a Figgins or Freel, but I doubt you'd be able to pull that off. Maybe try for another OF in case Griffey or Drew hits the DL.

Not sure either, but there are some owners who want shelton, and I want to sell him high
