Help me get out of the basement - WHIR

[napes22]

Yahoo 12 team roto. 5x5 (R, HR, RBI, SB, Avg/ W, S, K, ERA, WHIP)

My team has been falling further and further to the bottom of the standings, but it has potential...just numerous slumping players. How can I improve this team? Everyone wants Utley, but I haven't been offered a reasonable trade for him yet. My pitching is a little hurting and needs some time to recover from Peavy's bad start ( I traded him). What can I do to improve. I will help you if you help me.

Im also Yahoo rotiss (9tm & 12tm leagues) and was near the bottom in the 9 tm until last 3 weeks or so when I have climbed up to 4th (by a half point but still...)
It turns out I'm a free agent addict. I have less than half of my original draftees (one was autodraft/other, well it's my first year and I didn't know enough to pick better) On Yahoo there are always columns (the Wire and MLB Skinny) that have rising/falling players and closer situations for some teams and I have used that info plus my rookie instincts to add/drop players trying to help my team and have done well so far.
Some names off the top of my head from these lists are G Matthews Jr/Tex, M Thames/Det, R Baldelli/TB, M DeRosa/Tex, D Johnson/Oak, F Sanchez/Pit and C Patterson/Bal
I still dont know enough to say who will bounce back or not but I can see by the numbers who is better or worse than last month and for me, I guess I'd rather change to someone better now than hope someone gets better later
