Traded C. Lee/Maggs/Smoltz/Burnett/R. Soriano for Holliday/Abreu/Roberts/Cain and traded Fielder/Zimmerman for ARod
I know my pitching sucks but it is a strategy that worked for me twice last year (1st & 2nd place in my leagues). I stacked my lineup, kept 1 ace on the roster, played 5 CL's with good K rates daily, and payed close attention to the waiver wire for young pitchers who were overlooked and ended up pitching nicely. I'm not sure if the strategy will work out this year or not, but it worked nicely last year. It makes it interesting if nothing else.
