The short answer: Not a thing. You have several top picks that either aren't performing or are injured. The injuries will heal and the slumps will end. Usually talent wins out in the end in fantasy baseball, so just sit tight (we're only three weeks in) and don't do anything drastic.

Oh, and if you're really not starting a 3B while ARod is hurt, I suggest you do. ;-7

Your team is fine bro take it easy, drop one of those bums on your bench for a 3B for the time being, and sit back.

Your team is going to turn it around it is early in the season.

Yeah I figured I would be better off not even using a 3B until A Rod got back since I didn't draft one in our draft (before he got hurt). Only two 3B look like they are even worth a roster spot at this point. Pedro Feliz who I would need to use a WW claim on and Casey Blake who is a free agent. Both at 2.7 fp/pg everyone else is about a fp or more less pg. 3.0 fp/pg is a benchmark for what I would look for in a starter.

Jason Giambi for Blake. Both will end up with similar stat lines and Blake has dual elgibility.
The best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be!
