What do you think. Where do I lack? which moves should i make? How will it go for me?. To many players from the mets?
I'm a little down on DiceK this year, you'll want to watch his WHIP, he might kill you in that department. I DO like Verlander, but he's another you need to watch, he's very inconsistent.
Trade-wise, you need help in the saves department. Hanrahan and Sherrill may or may not help you in the saves and will probably hurt you in the ERA and WHIP department. Street is not the clear-cut closer in Colorado, they may give the ball over to Corpas, I would handcuff your situation by having both closers.
I'm wondering if Motte is available, I would consider dropping Hanrahan and Sherill for Corpas and Motte.
I would Echo Arizona's comments about Diasuke and your RP... other than that....
Carlos Delgato is a guy I feel is gonna fall way back to earth this year... he might be OK, but I don't think he'll be anywhere near his 2nd half of last season
What really concerns me is your SP in general
Joba will probably be OK for you while he's out there, but he probably has an inning cap again so... how much will he actually be out there? Moreover, how many games will Giradi let him take into the 7th and 8th? Too many 6 inn 3 run performances could really come back to hurt you
Also, in regards to wang... He hasn't faced a major league club in the regular season in a long time, and that scares me... He has been known to struggl keeping his sinker down when he's healthy... who knows what the injury might have done. He's another guy that will probably be decent... but I would defenetly watch him.
As far as RP go...
is troy percival available?
how about jakim soria from the royals?
I like your team over all(again, great lineup as long as you don't mind gambling on Delgato) and your pitching is alright. You just have to watch that it dosen't go south on you... and be ready with some damage control if it does...
Your offense looks great. I think your SP is lacking, and will hurt you. You may want to think about moving an offensive players for a good SP. You should be able to sacrifice on of them for a good SP. Would be my only critique. May need another closer, but that always can be fixed in season
Offense looks really good. Pitching would be a concern. I like Dice-K and Wang. I'm in the boat of try to trade for a top notch SP. Sleeper SP that may be available = Kuroda.
just offered a trade, Dunn for king felix. The other team got a really weak OF, Maybin, Choo, gardner, Sandoval as Util and quite deap piching. And he got Felix from the Waivers earlier. You think its a good trade for me?
