7 Team league Roto stratagy?

[trumpeter]

Because of a few last minutes dropouts in our league, we are down to 7. As commissioner, I decided to add a CI, MI, P and Util spots to keep it interesting. Are there any special stratagies I could use to take advantage of the small number of teams? Thanks!

You won't need any hitters on the bench, there will be plently of players available. You can load up on pitching.

Also, I would draft one player you have no intention of keeping for some day-to-day flexability. Nothing beats droping in say, A Laroche for a week, still available in my 7 team league by the way.

Most first time owners in short leagues will find it hard to drop a player who's a stud in 12 team leagues, which is why I like the flexability.
