Where can I improve?

C: Brian McCann
1B: Lance Berkman
2B: Brian Roberts
3B: Felipe Lopez
SS: Hanley Ramirez

UTIL: Adrian Gonzalez
UTIL: Adam Lind

SP: Tim Lincecum
SP: Josh Beckett
RP: Heath Bell
RP: Huston Street
P: Roy Oswalt
P: Adam Wainwright
P: Francisco Liriano
B: Erik Bedard

Stat Categories: R, H, 1B, 2B, 3B, HR, RBI, SB, BB, IBB, K, E, AVG, CYC, SLAM, W, L, CG, SHO, SV, HR, BB, K, ERA, K/9, NH, PG, BSV

I am looking for advice on a player to target in trades. I really would like to trade off Oswalt and Berkman, but there really isn't any player I'm attatched to except Hanley. We get to keep two players this year and four next, so I'd also like to build towards that goal of having a solid core.

With 7 starting spots for Pitchers, u have only 2 relievers and huston street is being predicted as possibly losing his job sometime or if not hurt.

Trade wainwright or beckett for a closer
With only 7 spots for starters, I like morrow cuz in some leagues he has dual SP/RP availability. Although he's injury prone, but he's not worth beckett or wainwright. someone lesser.
reynolds is a sink hole for average, there's gotta be someone out there better than him?
i favor balance, dunn is another sinkhole for avg. u can target perhaps either?
u also didnt mention league type or size

plz help me: viewtopic.php?f=26&t=377759&p=3027692#p3027692

You've got a well-balanced team, so I suppose the best thing you could do is trade maybe some 2 for 2 deals to improve your keepers.

With Hanley and Lincecum, I'm not too sure how he improves his keepers.

If you start 2 RPs and 3Ps, you could have another RP for some depth. I think you should also look to improve 3B. Agreed that you should try to get some value for Oswalt as you have great SP depth.

Good luck!

I got an email from another owner because I put Berkman and Oswalt on the trading block and he sent me this back.

I give Berkman and Oswalt and I get back Miguel Cabrera

I'd do that. Put Miggy at 3B and play AGoz at 1st.
