Hi, i'm new here too... Nobody answered my topic, so i'm going to be nice to you... But take my opinion w/ a grain of salt... Btw, i'm also playing on yahoo, but w/ 12-team...

Here are my thoughts:
-you have all 3 relievers who are doing awful at the moment, i'd get rid of Hoffman or Wood and maybe get Wagner or what I did is get Lidge, put him on the DL to free up a spot for Contreras, if they're still available (they were for me). If they're not, Dottel is doing pretty well.

-As for starting pitchers, I can't find many faults... I picked up Leblanc and J. Garcia who are doing great atm, if ever you've got one of your guys struggling...

-Offense: Podsednik is only good for steals, i used to have him and am missing the steals, but I see you have Crawford & Pennington to make up for that. Maybe consider dropping him for Hawpe who just got off the DL & is doing welll.

Maybe you should tell me who's on your bench, that way i could tell you more, but your offense seems solid. Ah, one other thing, if Polanco is still for grabs, get rid of Weeks.

Here's my post:

your right with certain aspects, the issue is that u have 29 players on each team, start 27 of them wit 1 bench only, which means that guys like hawpe and polanco r deff taken because 290 players are automatically taken (excluding DL spots) also saves are scarce so no matter who u have, as long as they are an active closer u have 2 keep them since everyone has at least 3 closers so wit 10 teams thats 30+ closers taken. Thanks for the help, and when u post ur link, ill give u pointers as well
