Infield looks decent, but you need some power in the OF. Getting Jones should help you there and if/when Teahen gets his OF eligibility, you should be set. I'd dump Loretta, Bradley and Polonco for some setup guys like Broxton, Neshek, Shield, Linebrink, Wainwright, Zumaya, etc. That should help address your RP weakness.

thanks for the advice,i'll look into those moves tomorrow.....its geting late and work is only six hours away so no time now at least....and after i make a few moves tomorrow i'll take a look at your roster and give you my thoughts.
i would agree,
dump loretta, polanco and bradley.
2 very top tier Relievers will provide you with a great ERA,
some wins, solid strikeouts and a good whip.
look around waivers,
see if any sleepers are available.
people like BJ Upton, Alex Gordon, Delmon Young,
you can always find a few guys on waivers who should easily be on someones roster.
maybe familiarize yourself with your team,
know what you are getting and what you have.
what you might need to look for.
be open to trading,
especially the people who could be overvalued

I managed to pick up jacque jones...i have a trade pending for bobby jenks....and i just got offered francisco rodriguez for chone figgins....should i jump on that one or just hope i get jenks and pick up some free agents......i tried to get rodriguez in the draft but it didnt work out.

Yea K-Rod for Figgins is a no brainer, that will put you at the front of the Saves in the league easily, and you can grab some base stealers on the WW
“Never argue with a idiot, because first they will bring you down to their level. Then beat you with experience.”
Your infield is solid as hell but your Of lacks a stud. The Jones for Coco move was good, if you didn't grab Jones, someone else would have by the end of the week. Dump dead weight like Loretta, Bradley and Polanco. They are useless.
I'd grab some set-up men who could close down the road, maybe two of them, and use your last freed up spot for a potential strong rookie like Alex Gordon or Troy Tulowitzki if they are available. Delmon Young is a good one to check for as someone else mentioned.
i would do both the krod and the jenks trades. you would be set at saves and probably ahead of the pack. you already have kent for a 2b so figgins only loses you SB. is chris duffy on your FA? if he is pick him up and loko at him for 35+ SB. i like your team especially after those trades.
