How did I do?

Your team is solid. Did good imo, maybe gave up a little much, your pitching is now just ok after loss of Haren. Your hitting is great.

For that deep of rosters your stacked. Imagine your doing very well to start the year correct?

Honestly I think you might have gotten shafted with this deal man. Cabrera>Berkman Haren>Meche (Meche is slightly injured now also) and Hanley>Furcal. I think Berkman could have an off year, and Haren is an underrated Ace. IMO those 2 outweigh the gain of acquiring Hanley Ramirez.

Am I wrong, or is Haren not a notorious 1st half pitcher? I play in a smart league and would not have been able to move him for as much as the season dragged on. Also, Berkman was the #1 rated fantasy player for most of the year last year and I think if he wasnt slumping to begin the season like this I could not have pulled off this deal. And I think the jump from Furcal to HANRAM is so huge it covers the drops I took from MCAB to Berk and Haren to Meche.

Haren I believe is notorious for his fast starts.

If Berkman hits like last year he can put up relatively close numbers to MIggy but dont expect this. Haren to Meche was a big loss and your pitching is nothing great but will do the job. Idk its pretty even trade imo.

I would have a hard time pulling the trigger on that trade. I like Haren and Mcab a ton more than Berkman and Meche. So that puts it to a no brainer IMO of Furcal vs Hanram (which I would not do). I think I would have had to pass. But, since you did do the trade, lets just hope that Berkman catches on fire and Hanram starts hitting more. After all, you just got the #1 pick in most leagues for the #5-#9 pick.
