Ok, obviously, I need pitching. But it seems like pitching really got overvalued this year. Everyone went in the top 100 it seamed like. I got my pitchers at great values, and tried to focus on the power categories. I don't feel like I overpayed for any of my guys, but as a result of their value-orientedness and lack of sexiness, I am afraid I won't be able to offer much as trade bait to get the pitching I need. Who can I give up to get some pitching with upside? At this point, I am poised to win every offensive category except maybe stolen bases, but my most intriguing arm seems to be Curt Schilling. The others will do about what people expect. At this point, I am stacked at 1B, so some of these backups need to go. Nobody seems interested in Gonzo or Jackson though, as I got them in the last two rounds!
