damn that looks like a solid team, do you start all of those guys everyday? I'd look to improve at 3B/CI position. Is Tony Pena taken in your league? What about A.Gonzalez? If not, maybe dish one of your closers in a package with Chavez if you can upgrade there..you could probably sacrifice Pierre also if needed, I think Pie is here to stay, I like him hittin between Soriano and Lee. Thanks for the help

Thanks, its good to get a Cubs fan's perspective on Pie. I like him and hope he can keep getting on base.

Unfortunately I recently put this group together with various trades, so I havent had the benefit of their stats all year. Pena and Gonzalez are both available, I'll check out their numbers. I also like the idea of trading Chavez and a closer to upgrade, I actually sent something like that out for Aramis Ramirez recently.

Thanks again for the help.
