I know my closers are awful, and I'm debating just dropping both of them and picking up someone else (maybe a catcher) or just playing the WW for saves all year... I still need to pick a catcher up and there are plenty of "sleepers" available on the waiver wire. Who should I drop for a C and is there anything else that you would recommend? Can this team win it all?


Thanks for your help, and leave a link!

ur lineup is solid- IF and OF is pretty solid. like u said, your pitching can use some improvement. see if u can make some kind of trade for a 2nd tier pitcher or something.

outfield looks extremly strong to me with 4 legit stars, i would try and trade possibly delmon young and either lopez or tejada for a closer and a catcher

12 team? Your OF'ers are pretty solid, decent IF'ers. I wouldn't drop Otsuka unless Gagne proves he's healthy for atleast a month into the season. Don't drop Valverde either, he's very dominant and this could be his break out year.

As for catchers, keep a tab on Estrada, Paulino, Bard, and Zaun.

OF is great but Pitching is suspect...id say try to make deals to increase depth of SP and grab a C.
