Welcome to Fantasy Baseball!

If you want help at the Cafe about these kinds of things, you have to give more information. How many teams? Roto, points, or H2H? Keeper or redraft? What categories? What scoring? How many players do you have to start, and how many are just bench spots?

I can say your lineup looks a little weird. Miggy AND Atkins? Is one of them in the Util spot, or is Atkins languishing on the bench? 2 backup third basemen but no backups for OF?

Kind of hard to rate...roto or H2H? How many teams? So, just at a glance you need some speed. You don't need Cabrera and Atkins, plus Gordon to boot. I'd look for some more speed and maybe an upgrade at catcher if available.

12 team yahoo H2H redraft 5x5

anyone?

Good team.Trade a 3B for maybe a stud OF. You need the bench spot just to rotate them in.

More speed but you should have the other cats covered.

I don't that team is bad for a 12 team. I would stick with Mulder because he has been a proven pitcher and 2 years ago even though his Whip was near 1.4 he put up really good numbers. I don't like Dotel though, If other closers are available I would try and find one like a Solomon Torres type also because of the fact that Tankersley's shoulder is acting up too. I would move Atkins if you could for a more polished OF especially if Alex Gordon is going to come up and do something and if not Overbay is not an awful guy to plug into the Util spot.

Forgot to add that your speed is somewhat lacking but all in all not terrible. I like the SPs especially having Rich Hill that deep in the rotation

who should i try to get with atkins?

[TheWrightStuff]

who should i try to get with atkins?

You could try and get someone like Grady Sizemore with him. You will not lose much in any of the departments that you had with Atkins plus you get speed except a hit in your RBI's
