Rating my first fantasy team (ever) greatly appreciated

[Guest]

Greetings everyone!,

This is my first post for my first fantasy team ever. This is a 5X5 Roto Yahoo Public league (autodraft). I did NOT use the yahoo default rankings and pre-ranked with my own. I feel my infield is strong (notably SS) yet my pitching may be a weakness. What do you guys think? Trade possibilities?

-Thanks!

Very strong team. Since you've got four closers, you may want to trade one (Julio or Rhodes) away for another solid SP. I'd take a guy on the Dodgers (Nomo?) or Yankees (Contreras).

Great team!
Nice draft. Congrats

You have so much depth with your offense its crazy!

Your P is incredible too. Oswalt, Brown and Beckett is a fine 1-3. Just be carefull of injuries. Your closers are fine - 4 of them are a luxury coming out of the draft - nicely done. Harden and Garcia both have big ?s.

If this were my team, I would look to upgrade that 3rd OF (if you can call Cabrera or Kearns a weakness there). More importantly, though, Id feel better with another top flight SP - one without much injury risk. I would try and package a couple players for him, and Id rather give up a it of offense to do that.

OBTW - Crawford and Reyes are undroppable from your team if you want to compete in steals, cause no one else on your squad runs.

Congrats on the nice team

That team looks pretty strong to me. You have a lot of depth and could probably make a move or two to improve with the guys you have. Maybe pick up an ace but you dont even need it. Congrats on the good team.

Thanks everyone....

I want to have fun this summer, and your comments are appreciated.

I like my team and then I see Cornbread Maxwell's 911 autodraft results and I just salivate!

Yep, I would like to get that one more ace at SP!

good luck everyone.
