Since you have a solid catcher already I would drop Pronk, Barmes or Sandoval. As a catcher Sandoval is decent, as a Corner Infielder he's Travis Ishikawa at best. I certainly wouldn't drop Lind and would want to see if Cruz can reproduce what he did last season before I cut him.

I am using Sandoval and Barmes as my back up since they qualify at mutiple postions, I did try to trade for Aaron Harang but the other wanted Cruz as well so I balked. I think I am okay on power so maybe I should drop him for a pitcher. I dunno

I would drop Hafner and store him on your auxiliary bench (the waiver wire) until he shows he'll ever be worth anything again. Drop Barmes. Pick up Stewart as a sub. Do not drop Cruz. Did nobody else draft a catcher? You shouldn't have trouble trading Martin or Mauer for some pitching. You could use an ace, and you don't have a solid closer in the bunch.
