Thanks for looking!

Heres the squad:

C- Miguel Montero
1B- Albert Pujols
2B- Brian Roberts
3B- David Wright
SS- Jimmy Rollins
OF- Grady Sizemore
OF- Matt Holliday
OF- Justin Upton
OF- Nick Markakis
UT- B.J. Upton
BN- Alexei Ramirez
BN- Alfonso Soriano

SP- Dan Haren
SP- Josh Johnson
SP- Cole Hamels
SP- Javier Vazquez
SP- Jake Peavy
SP- Tommy Hanson
SP- Roy Oswalt
RP- Joakim Soria
RP- Jose Valverde
RP- Rafael Soriano
RP- Ryan Madison

I am Pretty sure I am taking Pujols back. (haha) But what about the rest? Its a 6x6 league with OBP and Holds, so Wright and Holliday have an advantage. Tell me what you think and leave a link!

We need a name for these teams, something like "If you assembled this team you have no reason to ask for advice" only shorter & snappier. More like "2good2ask" or "2good4help"
luv your signature btw
anyway the other 3 I'd choose are J Upton Holliday & Wright

I like Pujols, Wright, Sizemore and Holliday as well. Those are some pretty incredible keepers there, this isn't a 12-team league, is it?

My vote goes to Upton for the 4th spot, although I can certainly see going with Sizemore.

Pujols, Wright, Sizemore and Holliday. I would definitely think about Upton but I don't know how you can throw back Holliday or Sizemore. Any chance of trading Sizemore and Holliday for Braun and then keeping Upton?

1B- Albert Pujols
3B- David Wright
OF- Matt Holliday
OF- Justin Upton

Pujols is a no-brainer, wright will be (w)right again, Holliday looks to stay in St. Louie and Upton is one of my personal favs to finally go through the roof in 2010

Pujols
Holliday
Wright

I think the choice comes down to Upton and Sizemore. I like Uptons potential after really stepping it up last year. Sizemore was hampered by an elbow all year. I'd probably try to deal Wright and Sizemore for Braun/Arod/Cabrera/Fielder. Any of them would be and upgrade and then you can keep Upton as your 4th. Or deal Upton and Sizemore. You should still be able to get some good quality for those two.

Pujols
Wright
Upton

^definite keepers. You want Upton's upside for sure over someone who's been a disappointment in batting average and other categories like Sizemore. IMO, Sizemore isn't even close to Justin for 2010.

For the fourth, I'd go with Holliday to round out the keepers.
