pretty balanced offense.....weak on closers though unless street dosnt get hurt and percival is rays closer for the whole year...and u have nobody for holds

great looking team. I'd decline both trades. sheets will be on the dl soon and atkins is worth more than wagner.

Who would you recommend I try to look for? I know I need relieving especially in the holds category. Who would you recommend I look for for holds and possibly better closers? What do you think of my starting pitching? I'm not sure how they will all run out. And now my last question. Do you think Varitek will be good enough in the catcher spot or should I keep my eye on someone else or possibly look at a trade?

Look for a better catcher. Also I might think about that Sheets trade. How much is Konerko really going to help your team?

Ya I've been really considering that Sheets trade the Atkins trade I've basically dismissed out of my mind. But he also had Carlos Zambrano. He has a terrible 1B and if he really wants Konerko do you think he would go for that?

I'm also expecting Paul Konerko to come back big to maybe take over either UTIL or 1B or possibly a trade later in the season for a bigger profit. But there still comes the problem with my pitching.
