Who do you have at SS right now?

I'd rather have Braun than Rollins.

No counter offer? I am not trying to make a trade just to do it....but I would like to add some speed to my lineup.

I should probably just leave it alone.

I still don't know who is playing SS for ya.

Does he have any closers? How about...

Braun/BJ Ryan

for

Rollins/Bills

I'd rather have Braun. In H2H, I'd care a little less for SB, knowing how random they can be. Who do you have at SS, BTW?

If I were you, I'd shop Atkins around; Beltre should definitely suffice as your starting 3B.

[Amazinz]

You have Crawford so it looks like plenty of speed for H2H. If you really have to have Rollins you can try countering with Berkman. Braun is certainly too much.
