i'm in a predicament, please help!

I'm not sure if you can see my roster in my sig, but here it is.

McCann - C . Sabathia
Fielder, Hoffpauir, Huff - 1b.
Utley, Hill - 2b
Hardy - ss
Huff - 3b
Hafner - utilHamilton
Nady
Hoffpauir
Schafer
Thames
Schumaker
Ross
Murphy, Dan
Spilbourghs

Sabathia
Grienke
Pelfrey
Saunders
Motte
Lindstrom
Balfour
Liriano
Carpenter

Alright, so i am thin at OF and i am potentially thin at SP if Carpenter, Liriano, and Pelfrey do not perform as i hope(and i know RP but i'm going to scour the WW and add them as some starting RP go down, so i'm not worried).

I am looking at OF on other teams and im looking at Soriano, hermida, Vlad, Quentin, Francouer (thinking i can get him cheap, but is it worth the risk)

What kind of deals should i pursue to fill out my outfield. I'm reluctant as i am happy with my IF (excpet maybe Huff) and i knwo i'm going to have to trade one of them? I am trying to use Grienke as bait but i'm not gettin much in return.

I think you need to see what happens. You don't have much to trade so any trades you do will just create a new need some where else. Although I would think about moving Sabathia only because I don't see him staying healthy all year long. But after that keep a good eye on the WW for OF, SP and RP and move from there.

I disagree on Cody Ross, I think he will be a useful piece and probably more than Hermida, but I agree about dropping Hoffpauir and reordering your roster and posting the best Waiver Wire options.

Dump Hoffpauir for Tim Hudson (stash him on your DL).

Luke Scott will play some 1b as well so he's a nice sleeper fi you need it. Matt LaPorta I'd probably pick him up with your free spot.

Anthony Reyes is a nice sleeper as well.

What RP and 3b are on waivers
