A fourteen team league, and someone is dropping Ellsbury and Wells? What the...?

First, find a better league.

Second, pick up Ellsbury.

Help here? Looking to try to get some value for Utley:

I would drop freeman or byrd for ellsbury, although your lineup doesn't look like it needs any more speed. But between vernon and ellsbury its a no brainer...

with that said, I would actually try to trade brian roberts (i'm too scared he'll get injured again with his old fragile body) or denard span for a carlos quentin, IMO you need more power in your lineup, your only power hitters are braun and bautista

Not bad advice above, but I don't know how you land Quentin right now, with his bat as hot as it is.

I would drop Byrd and stick with Freeman. He has potential. Give it a few weeks, at least, to see what he does with it.
