I'd wait till you hear something about the length of Rollins absence before you drop a closer unless you think you can get one back when Rollins is healthy.

How many can you have on your DL? I almost wanna say drop the guy on the DL, put Rollins there and then pick up Drew. I have the same situation, except I already have Drew. I have been switching Rollins and Drew back and forth basically when Rollins is off I put Drew in his spot, otherwise Drew is my UTIL player.

only 1 dl spot. drop berkman, really?

I mean, you have Pujols and Voto. Unless you plan on holding berkman for trading him I would say 3 first baseman is a bit much.

[Tom Emanski AllStars]

that was the initial plan when i drafted him. i was hoping both votto & berkman would have good years and I could trade to the highest bidder; I stil feel inclined to do that.

F.Morales to me doesn't hold has much value as berkman, I could also always drop one of works in progress SPs (Sheets, Peavy, Liriano)


appealling other FA (not SS):

Ryan Ludwick
Brian Roberts
Hideki Matsui
Delmon Young
Josh Willingham

It seems to me like you made up your mind for yourself. Drop Morales, pick up Drew. Drew has been producing decent numbers thus far and will be a good stand in for Rollins for sure.

Cut Morales and Liriano for Roberts and Drew!

[Hit Factory]

Drop Sheets, the guy is trash.

Help with mine?

sheets has walked quite a bit, but he still hasn't the chance to be the "diamond in the ruff". And we all know the A's turn out some quality fantasy pitchers. (especially with their home park)

Liriano was one my few bright spots last week (although after reviewing my pitching performances this year, that's not really saying much)

Peavy has been getting shelled


I like Roberts/Drew/Ludwick,

and I really think F.Morales is the one to drop. Street is on the track to come back, albeit slow by some standards. F.Morales has converted 9/10 save opportunities dating back to July 2009, but none of that matters when Street comes back.

Roberts could help me in SB, but would tie up a roster spot with Berkman still on the DL
