You said this was an auction - how much did you pay for your players?

You have some really good pitching and some true studs (Longo, Gonzo, Price, Verlander, etc.) but you need more power and lack enough speed. I'm not sold on Weeks staying healthy but you do have Lowrie (who I really like) waiting in the wings. I like Bourjos (speed) to break out - I do not like Sizemore at all but you can use his "name" to trade for a solid power outfielder and a better closer. And you can also use Davis & Rodney in your trade talks as their names exceed their values. Montero backing up Martin is sweet. I hope this helps you - good luck this year!

Nice team especially for 12 team. Great rotation!!! If Kendry gets/stays healthy he should put up some solid #s! Only real "iffy" thing I see is Sizemore. But if he rebounds nicely then that is a huge plus. Still I'd want a solid backup if he didn't pan out. Closer might need upgrade but that is something you can do over season as closers come and go. Nice job. Good luck!

your team is looking really good i think jter ill have a bounce back year and thts no my yanke hat talking i just think with all this offseason bull his drive will push him fo a comeback year , ur pitching is beast 4 real thanks for the help on mine

I am not too excited by Russell Martin. The catching situation in NY is a bit unstable, but if he can stay healthy and start the majority of the year it should be good. I suggest keeping a short leash on him.
