I'd try to move some pitching for an upgrade on your offense. who's available FA wise?

no one, unless you want to do the swapping game in and out. In this league pretty much every SP in the rotation is in play. So the only pitching points to get would be through middle relief, which is not a territory I want to get into personally. I think that is too unpredicatble a way to pick up points.

I don't know, looking at your scoring, middle relievers might actually be be better bets then some of your weaker starters. Sure complete games and shut outs are worth a hell of a lot but they happen so rarely nowadays it's not something you can really count on. Holds are worth 3 points, wins are worth 4. You don't have a lot of risk of picking up a loss with a reliever and the best ones only allow a handful of earned runs and homers.

Looking at your current staff you're telling me you'd rather throw someone like Chris Sampson or Horacio Ramirez out there then a stud set up man like Jonathan Broxton or Joel Zumaya? Heck even a guy like Matt Capps has 7 holds this year.
