I've gone from last place (10th) in Week 4 to 4th place as of last week. I had the trading fever over the last 3 weeks, and have almost completely revamped my team. What do you think of my team? Post your link and I'll post on yours!

Thanks.

It really depends on how deep your league is... Your infield is Stacked, outfield looks solid. Pitching is what you can work on improving.Since you have so many floaters you can look into scherzer if hes available in you league as he has some pretty good matchups coming up.

Hope that helped

I agree, you may want to upgrade your pitching a bit, its good, but i don't think it will stay good for the rest of the year....but infield is ridiculously good and outfield is pretty solid

You should be waaay out in front... How on earth did you get Longoria and Han Ram? And then Mauer and Morneau... What did your draft look like?

[CraigZem]

My team definitely didn't look like this after the draft, I've traded so many time I've lost track, but now I think this is my team, more or less, for the long haul.

First, I traded A-Rod for Mauer and Zimmerman.
Then, I traded Zimmerman and Ubaldo for Longoria.
Next, I traded Kinsler & Tulo for HanRam and Jaime Garcia.

Other than that, just small trades and free agency helped make my team.
