Bradley might be free in your league, or even Victorino. Granderson is too much of a free swinger and I don't like buying into Byrnes just yet.

overall, you might wanna invest in some RP.

you only have 1 closer, though otsuka will be closing for at least the first part of the season. you have a strong IF and SP with a lot of upside. but you do need an upgrade at OF. maybe you could trade teix for a top OF and play sexson at 1st

help me out

Hmm, you like your Phillies and former Phillies...


Your SP's are pretty good trade bait, I think you should trade one of your top guys for an OF- someone should bite. You can still get good production from #3 or #4 SP's, and you'll have your bat too.

I agree, with Sexson on the bench, you could trade Teixeira.

Thanks for the comments guys. I will look into offering Tex for an upgrade at OF or RP.

I am hoping Gagne will not be the closer for long when he returns. Otsuka is a bt of wishful thinking. There are usually a couple RPs a year that can be picked off the WW after other closers are injured or falter.
