Drop Youkilis. I don't like it much, but there you go.

Drop Soto. I don't like this either.

Trade Soto, Youkilis, and Hamels for Hanley Ramirez and a draft perk or a prospect.

Trade Soto, Youkilis, and Hamels for David Wright and a draft perk.

Find a terrible team with one great player. You're dropping too much value.

That is a strong 7 players to choose from, especially from a 14 team league. I agree with the other poster that it may be best to attempt a trade. Find a team that has one or two good players and no one else, and give them a 2 (or 3) for their one good player.

But if you can't trade, I would drop Soto, then either Votto or Youk.

I would say drop Votto and Youk. You've got catcher and pitching ace covered. So picking up a power 1st basemen should be easy.

Soto is an easy cut for me given those keepers. If you can't pull off a trade I guess I would drop Youkilis.

Hamels, Holliday, Utley, Kemp and Soto/Voto. Whichever you think you need more based on what other C's are being kept. I also would try to make a trade to improve with an overflow of talent like that. Good luck! ;-D
