Any advice..My team..

[Bigball]

Set up is same as MLB - 1b,2b,3b,ss,3 OF and a DH with a minor league farm system.
You can have 25 players undr contract with 11 pitchers - does not include players who have MLC.
If you play a ML player he must stay on your roster until he is sent down.

I am looking to make my team better. I have traded to get Johjima, Peavy, Ortiz, Ibanez, Marte,Robertson, Grienke, Mulder and have the 7th pick, 37,56,57,63,68 pick in the draft.

This is the first time I've seen DPT as a category. Defensive categories for position players add an interesting dimension (I've only used Errors before.)

Your pitching is pretty good for a 16-team league, and your offense is scary...but I'd like to see you add a better outfielder, preferably with some speed. Howard, Ortiz, AND Cabrera in a 16-team league? Geez.

[05worldserieschamps]

How the heck did you draft MCab and Howard in a 16 team league? thats 2 potential Top 5 picks and guaranteed Top 10. Are the people drafting just stupid? Anyway, your offense is ridiculous seeing how Ortiz is ALSO a Top 5-10 pick.

Your pitching is decent for a 16 team league too though.

I picked up Howard and Miggy when they were prospects.
I traded Abreu when he was onfire for Ortiz best deal I could have made.
Picked up Ibanez in trade and Robertson in the Rule 5 draft.

Thanks for the imput.

Cameron is available in the FA Auction great BC at CF and that is where I will put the focus.

Beat me to it, or Jeremy Reed if you think he can bounce back to what he was projected to be, if he does you have a solid CF'er on yer hands.

Stout lineup though.
