ok i have no idea what i'm doing
but we just finished doing an auto draft

3B-Chipper Jones
SS-Orlando Cabrerra

*the three guys on my bench have multiple positioon eligibility
SP-Ben Sheets
SP-Eric Bedard
RP-Mariano Rivera
RP-Francisco Cordero
P-David Bush
P-Scott Olsen
P-Chris Young
BN-Solomon Torres
ok so how does my team look?
is it balanced?
do my pitchers need work? should i just give up on rp's?
i guess some notables on the ww are teehan, giles, matthew's jr, huff, e. encarnacion, vazquez, a. sanchez, penny, buehrle, k. rogers, markakis, and colon
IMO aslong as your starting pitchers stay healthy they should be good.
if Cordero can pitch the way he did in the NL last year he should be a good closer.
i think ive read that Chipper Jones has foot problems is it? he might miss some time so its good to have someone else to play 3B.
And that previous poster is correct: you need an alternative at 3b.
I like your position eligibility on your bench, but two of those three should go: Aurillia and Youklis. They aren't good enough. It's better to take a better player with only one position than a worse guy who won't do well at different places. Position eligibility is over-rated.
But Teehan and Markakis are off the wire. Pick them up, and then Teehan's your backup 3B.
Don't punt saves. In roto, every point counts, and you can always watch the wire closely for newly named closers. You can win when you finish last in a category.
I agree with almost everything except I will ditch all three bench players and add Encarcion as well. Wiggy is one of thoose guys that gets hot for a month and then makes you pay for it the rest of the time.

Wigginton is eligible at 3B, as well as 2B and 1B. He is acapable back up to Chipper. Though Teahen has a lot of upside. Youkliis may be better than Markakis, quite frankly - similar power, slightly lower BA, many more runs. Agree Aurelia should be junked ... though batting behind Binds ... he may drive in a lot of runs is healthy.
I think the team is pretty balanced, but you shoudl always look to tweak to improve.
