Hi,

Any glaring weaknesses? What should I target if trading and who should I part with? Thanks in advance...settings and lineup below. I have thought of shopping Vmart but then i consider the much higher # of at bats he'll get getting work at 1B, plus his outstanding #'s, age and keeper value. Anyhow, here goes...thought?

on offense, you have a great team. you could use a little more speed, but your overall its pretty solid. im not too fond of your pitching. you have one ace in the hole (webb), one ace in the making (hamels), one former ace (schilling), and the rest of your hope invested in young guys who could scare the crap out of you (pap, sowers) and old guys who could scare the crap out of you (rogers and santana). you have one closer in jones, and the rest are guys hoping to come up after the main closers go down. of course, it is too early to worry about closers because as the season goes on, you can always snatch a few off the waiver. but i would look to get one more reliable arm.

help me out...

bump Anybody else have suggestions/opinions?

I agree with your pitching being a little risky. Hamels and Schilling could screw you over if they get injured. You'll have a tough time competeing in pitching cats without them. Your relief pitching could use a boost too. On a positive note your hitting should win 4 cats most weeks. Roberts is too old to be relied on as your only source of steals.
