I'm in a 5x5 non-keeper roto league with 12 other members.

I made a big trade, and added and dropped some players. Those transactions are listed below.

traded away the following:
C Kenji johama 1B Chris Shelton, and RP Tom Gordon.

I recieved these in trades: C: Jorge Posada, SS Michael Young, and RP Eric Gagne

I dropped these SP's: Jon Garland, Kevin Milwood, and Ervin Santana

And picked up these young SP's 2-6 days before they made The Show or rotation: Corey Hamels, Francisco Liriano, and
Noah Lowry


Now here's my current roster:


Lopez, Javy C
Jorge Posada C
Fielder, Prince 1B MIL
Roberts, Brian 2B BAL
Glaus, Troy 3B
Young, Michael SS
Crawford, Carl
Giles, Brian
Lee, Carlos N.
Mench, Kevin OF
Podsednik, Scott
Delgado, Carlos U
Johnson, Nick U

Active Pitchers:


Jose Contreras SP
Liriano, Francisco SP
Lowry, Noah SP
Corey Hamels SP
Bronson Arroyo SP
Rogers, Kenny SP
Otsuka, Akinori RP
Putz, J.J. RP
Chad Coredero RP

Reserves (injured)

Derrek Lee 1B
Gagne, Eric RP


I believe that the trade and pickups were good moves. I had a weak SS before Young, and I really think he will do well this season- along with the stacked lineup he's in. How did you think I did in the trades and pickups?

Any comments, advice, or overview of my roster would be greatly appreciated!

losing gordon hurt for you...but getting young is huge, and gagne could be big when/if he's back

[NYBonkerz]

good job getting putz/otsuka but i think you'll eventually need a proven closer down the line...

also, i would consider reacquiring Ervin santana if you can because he has a ton of potential on a good LAA team.
