Right off the bat I would consider dropping Ryan Cook for Goldschmidt.

Do you really need 4 closers? Even though Cook isn't technically the A's closer yet.

Thanks for the response.

And who would I bench if I picked up Goldschmidt?

Also what about Plouffe?

Plouffe is good right now but I dont think he will be able to keep this up long-term.

If you picked up Goldschmidt I would put him at 1B, then move Trumbo into your OF over Victorino for now. Just play the guys who have the best matchups. I have Victorino on my team too and I haven't been starting him recently since he has been in a slump the last couple of weeks.

Well so has Pablo Sandoval and Dustin Pedroia. Shouldn't I also consider sitting them?

No because Pablo and Dustin are both studs, maybe not so much Pablo but definitely Pedroia. Pablo has been hitting pretty well as of late tho imo, and he just came off the DL.

I don't consider Victorino a stud at all.

That is just me though. I have learned the hard way in fantasy to never sit your stud players.

I would look to make trades and I would start at 2b. I love Pedey and Cano, but having a 2b at utility is a waste because of the depth. Pedroia should get you an OF or 1b who puts up better numbers based on position value. I would deal Trumbo before his Batting Average comes down to earth (or Moustakas) as you have more than enough 3b on your team.
