Rate The Taint

[el_dude00]

Hello,

I'm a beginner FBB player and I'd really like some input. I've been playing fantasy sports for awhile and very rarely make any noise in baseball. Some of my past failures can be attributed to lack of knowldege on players (nowhere near my football and hoops knowledge) and part of it is just management.

That being said I'd really appreciate a review of my roster. I've included lots of scoring info. And I must mention that this will be a 4 player keeper league.

Thanks for your help.

Hey Shoeless,

I'd help you if I knew what I was doing. I think you could certainly use better pitching, but I'm awaiting some expert advice just like you.

As I said...I'm consider myself a rookie.

Good luck thouhg...my team was auto drafted. So I can't pat myself too hard on the back.

The offense looks weak to me but the pitching is great.

[el_dude00]

Thanks for the thoughts. I figured that my O was weak. I wonder though...and I aoplogize if these are "duh" worthy questions...

but I wonder about the following:

Is Konerko worth keeping or should I try and find some body else?
Who would be your 4 keepers on this team?
Who has the highest trade value on my roster?

Thanks for the input. Good luck to eveybody this season.

Konerko is your 2nd best hitter. Keep him.

Who would be your 4 keepers on this team?
I'd say Santana, Carlos Lee, Carpenter, and Konerko

Who has the highest trade value on my roster?
Santana

Thanks for the input. Good luck to eveybody this season.

One more question...to anybody out there really.

Who on my roster would you absolutely get rid of to add RP depth?

I agree. An argument could be made that Halladay is a keeper but over whom? I like Konerko and his is one of your better more consistent hitters. I would consider moving A. Ramirez and Sexson for a legit OF stud.

[el_dude00]

Thanks dirtywater2,

I'll take your advice about moving Sexson or A-Ram. Who would you drop for RP? I hate that my league tracks "holds" but I need to address that problem at some point. I'm just not sure who the best player to drop is.

I really appreciate the help and look forward to sharing my thoughts on Fantasy Football and Hoops.
