You need a Closer. I did not see one on your roster. Your league counts Saves and you should have at least 2 Closers, preferrably 3.

Your Outfield needs upgrading. A.Jones is batting .201. Kubel is pretty bad across the board.

I would drop C.Qualls and S.Linebrink and pick up 2 Closers. You would have to post again on this thread on what Closers are available in your league.

I would also drop Kubel and Jones. Post the available OF's.

I basically gave up on my closers thats why I just have relievers.

Here are outfielders available.

J.D. Drew
Scott Podsednik
Pat Burrell
Corey Patterson
Rocco Baldelli
Josh Hamilton
Geoff Jenkins
Luis Gonzalez
Dave Roberts
Coco Crisp
Jacque Jones
Shannon Stewart
Craig Monroe
Moises Alou
Chris B. Young
Brian Giles
Austin Kearns
Ryan Church
Felix Pie
Randy Winn
Garret Anderson
Jose Guillen
Jose Bautista
Chris Duffy
Carlos Quentin
Jim Edmonds
Michael Bourn
Jeremy Hermida
Melky Cabrera
Cliff Floyd

[Roberto Clemente]

That list is pretty sparse...and that's being kind.

I would take L.Gonzalez. Jose Guillen would be my 2nd choice. Both player's are a huge upgrade to A.Jones and J.Kubel.

Drop Jones and Kubel and pick these 2 up.

I am not exactly sure what you should do seen as the wire is very "skinny" for prospects BUT...in repsonse to a post above i WOULD NOT be dropping A Jones...he is starting to come good now and is DEFINATELY a second half performer ) depending on your position in each stat i think C Floyd is a good pick up i think and so is C. Crisp ) have u made any moves yet or still sweating over it?

any help with mine would be great mate )
