I'd scoop up Andrus to split playing time with Yunel, who is the weakest player on your lineup right now. I can't imagine how Andrus is unowned as he's definitely a top 10 shortstop. With you gaining Holliday, you probably don't need another outfielder. If I were you, I'd gain some speed and possibly evn upgrade my shortstop in this situation by picking up Andrus.

Elivs Andrus was just dropped by a Tulo owner. I agree I think he should be owned, even though he won't contribute in HR/RBI.

I just dropped Yunel Escobar and picked up Alexei Ramirez. With weather heating up so is Alexei. Do you think I'll still be better off with Andrus?

I'd like to carry 4 total OF (though I could carry 5), and I currently have 3. My top choices are Carlos Lee, Angel Pagan, Andres Torres, Nick Markakis.

Markakis hasn't done anything impressive last year or this year to separate himself from the pack. He, IMO, is average mid-tier OF. Which are plentiful in a 10team league with small rosters.

with my other roster spot either: elvis andrus, one of the aforementioned OF, or Pablo Sandoval

Carlos Lee (who looks to be getting hot) and Markakis would be my choice. Markakis always seems to heat up in the 2nd half.

Nice trade btw ;-D

Can you check mine?

now add Shaun Marcum to the list of new FA. I swear it like a fire sell. Never seen anything like it in my life.

Is Shaun Marcum better than any SP I have?
