Overall I'd say you're pretty set. I'd cut loose one of the SS on your bench (probably Tejada) and pick up another pitcher with high upside for your bench.

Thank you for the quick response! Which of these guys would you go after?
- Francisco Liriano
- Andy Pettitte
- Neftali Feliz
- Derek Lowe
- Scott Feldman
- Ervin Santana
- Daniel Bard

EDIT: Oh, and Juan Pierre is still available. Should I drop anybody for him?

[jazzmanljg]

I'd rather have Pierre as my SB guy off the bench then E. Cabrera who is less proven, but others might like Cabrera's upside. As far as those pitchers go, I'd probably grab E. Santana right now and then watch N. Feliz like a hawk during spring training to see if he looks as good as some of the hype around the guy sounds.

Hiroki Kuroda was also just dropped, does he get the nod over E. Santana?

[Pochucker]

I would pick up Liriano ASAP

Any other opinions?

[lambo1203]

The only concern I have is your Utility player while Beltrán is recovering. It's nothing big to worry about but still it'd help. I agree with the others, go after Liriano and get rid of Tejada. He's washed up IMO.

[Bucktail30]

I agree that the add here is Liriano. But definately keep an eye on Feliz for when Kerry Wood fails.

Unfortunately both Liriano and Feliz were grabbed by guys with a higher waiver priority. I picked up Ervin Santana but then dropped him for Mat Latos.

Do you see any specific categories that I should target in trades? Where am I strong, where am I weak?
