Well, your pitching is excellent, but you've got terrible hitting. I think your best hitter would be Blalock, rated about 50th overall. Definitely trade from your strength (SP) to get a new SS, C, and a new OF. You can afford to have less than three stud SP.

I agree with swarmee. Your pitching is excellent, but your hitting rather weak. Definitely trade at least one of your studs to get some good bats, espcially C, SS and OF. If you can pull something off to get better hitting, you should be in good shape.

Regardless of pitching, when your best hitters are M. Giles and Blalock, you are in trouble.

Maybe in a few yrs that sentence will sound like a ridiculous statement, but for this yr, its the truth.

Good luck trading those SP,s although I doubt you will have a hard time dealing them for value. Everyone wants a top SP, and you have 4.

With a lot of work, and a commitment to improving your OF, you may do well.
