Honestly, the fact that it is a 8 team league makes it tough to analyze cause everyone has amazing lineups.

^^^ I would agree the fewest I have ever played was ten and I currently am playing one 12 and one 16 team leauge. Tough to judge your situation.

i've seen better teams in 10-team leagues, so this team is clearly not that dominant for an 8-teamer. I think you can do better in the closer department than the sheer quantity of closers you have. i would try to deal some 3-2 or 2-1 deals to get better quality closers and make some roster space. your offense doesnt need much help at the moment, but i would consider packaging a 1B and a closer or SP for a better closer.

please take a look at mine in return:

Got any opinions on which closer I should try to package? I seem to have 1 guy interested in Chris Ray at the moment..but maybe I should try to move Weathers now before Guardado comes back?

...I also have a guy that was kind of interested in Sheets before he got that minor injury.

I was thinking of running Hill at second base for a little while longer and then putting Kendrick back into that slot after he's been back for a week or so.
