I believe I need to upgrade my hitting a little

[JeterFlips2Cano]

8 team league 5x5, and my pitching is obviously very solid. I feel like I can ship one of my top tier pitchers in some sort of deal to improve my hitting. What do you propose I do? Here is my team:


My team:

C - Ianetta
1B - Votto
2B - K. Johnson
3B - Wright
SS - Tulowitzki
OF - Beltran
OF - Markakis
OF - C. Young
Util - C. Jones
BN - Ethier

SP - Santana
SP - Webb
RP - Rivera
RP - Broxton
RP - Qualls
SP - Haren
SP - Harden
SP - Vazquez
SP - Cain
SP - Scherzer
SP - Harang


Should I try and beef up a position like 2B and go after someone like Utley/Kinsler, or instead try and go after a prime OF to compliment Beltran?

OR should I just hope my pitching dominates and that my hitting is able to keep up on a week to week basis?

I think a 2B would serve you well. I think you already have a good OF, obviously with Beltran, and you have Markakis, who has tremendous upside, enough to keep him. I think Kinsler would be a good option for you, since I think Utley will not have as great of a year and may be more expensive for you to give up. My first instinct would be to give up an arm, and see where it goes from there. Hope this helps...

Any help?

Oh I forgot to mention if you gave up an arm and got Kinsler.. you would have Kinsler Wright Tulo Markakis Beltran Chipper... and still have Johan (Don't give him up for Kinsler). Pretty solid if you ask me
