is this a keeper team? how many playoff spots? also how far back are you?

2 things to consider Longoria is way better than Reynolds at 3rd that is a given, also I think Strasburg gets shut down soon so the Nats can protect their investment in him, and Anderson is getting his rest right now, if this was a keeper league I might consider it but then i would realize it is easier to draft pitchers (more available) than 3rd basemen as all the top ones would be kept.

so I wouldn't do it

help with mine?

No, this isn't a keeper league.....redraft.

The top six make it into the playoffs. And I made a mistake, I'm in 7th, not 6th.
I'm 11 games back from the leader, but 1.5 games from sixth, 2 games from fifth. So I still have time to make it.

I wasn't sure how much longer Strasburg would be pitching for.

Thanks for the input.

HELLLLLL no. As said above, Longoria is way better than Reynolds, and Strasburg would be more valuable in a keeper league...which you aren't in.
