Nasty team.. 12person draft.. non keeper. how is it?

[jtrain19]

Here is my team.. how does it look


C- McCann, Brian C ATL
1B- Berkman, Lance 1B HOU
2B- Lugo, Julio SS BOS
3B- Crede, Joe 3B CHW
SS- Ramirez, Hanley SS FLA
OF- Burrell, Pat LF PHI
OF- Soriano, Alfonso LF CHC
OF- Swisher, Nick RF OAK
Util- Ortiz, David DH BOS
Bench
Hall, Bill SS MIL
Pierre, Juan CF LA
Young, Delmon RF TB
Thomas, Frank DH TOR

SP- Capuano, Chris SP MIL
SP- Hill, Rich SP CHC
SP- Johnson, Josh SP FLA
SP- Matsuzaka, Daisuke SP BOS
RP- Ray, Chris RP BAL
RP- Rivera, Mariano RP NYY
RP- Valverde, Jose RP ARI
Bench
SP- Billingsley, Chad SP LA
RP- Borowski, Joe RP CLE

Hopefully hall gets a some time at 3rd so i can move him in there.. otherwise he could hit in my OF, i'd like to upgrade my 3b and my pitchers.. any ideas?

[Omaha Red Sox]

I think you got it man. You need to find a way to play Hall, either over Crede or Burrell (or Lugo). You have a lot of power with Berk, Papi and Soriano. How you pulled that off, I'd like to know.

Your starting pitching could use a lot of work. I like DiceK, but he's still no fantasy stud. I like Rich Hill, but we don't know enough to keep him in that spot all season. Your RPs should be ok, but you'll probably drop Ray eventually.

I might play with what you have and trade away a hot hand (like Thomas or a OF to insert Young) for some SP help.

Thankx alot mad dog.. these are the rosters.. ive been in talks with team 2 he has asked for players such as soriano or swisher... figgins was his offer for swisher.. and then it was figgins n bedard for soriano.. i asked for figgins and willis for swisher...

What might you see me doing?

[jtrain19]

no, no trades.. i had the 7th pick.. i took ortiz, then soriano... on the back swing it was berkman and hanley..

[mission27]

Soriano in the second round is pretty lucky, espisaly with like the 17th overall pick. In many expert mocks I have seen, he is going as high as 2. That has to be the steal of the draft

[bsblallstr]

i love your hitting for a 12 team league, and while your pitching is a little bit weak, it has the potential to be good, i wouldnt say great, but good, at least good enough to complement your hitting and take the league.

[RockChalk09]

I think if you camp out on the waiver-wire you should finish at the top.

Starting pitching is your big concern, but with a little finagling and luck you should be able to turn it into a decent core.

Man, I could only wish to have that kind of luck in the draft.

Package
Burrell
Dice-K
Valverde
for
Jake Peavy
and either Baldelli or Dye (feel him out find out which he values less)

Try to buy low on Peavy and sell high on Dice-K.
