My hitting is pretty dominate and I lead every catagory except SB, but pitching is a different story the only catagory I lead in is Ks all the rest I'm middle of the pack what should I do? I was thinking of doing Pedroia and Granderson for Lincecum and Uggla but wouldn't that kill my runs(which I lead the league by 30) and SBs? I'm in first btw.

I would probably do that deal if I were you. You have a big lead, and the guys left on your team should keep up you near the top. You need help in SP, so this makes sense for you.
The deal would be great if the guy is willing to deal Lincecum. However, you don't seem to have a lot of depth at the infield positions. What's on the waiver wire?
I do think Granderson is the chip you need to throw out there to acquire pitching. I just acquired Grandy in one league for Gallardo straight up.
Obviously you have to give a good player to get one, but I agree that Pedroia and Granderson is too much. Perhaps try targeting a slightly lesser pitcher for just Granderson? It shouldn't be too hard to find a decent pitcher for a top 40-50 position player. I'd think about Cole Hamels since his overall numbers still don't look great but he's been pitching well lately.
