My Roster:
C Buster Posey
1B Eric Hosmer
2B Trevor Plouffe
3B Alex Rodriguez
SS Alexei Ramirez
CI Aramis Ramirez
MI Dan Uggla
OF Hunter Pence
OF Alex Rios
OF Corey Hart
OF Austin Jackson
OF Matt Joyce (DL)
Ut David Freese
Bn Carl Crawford (DL)
DL Dustin Pedroia
DL Troy Tulowitzki

P Fernando Rodney
P Addison Reed
P Casey Janssen
P Tom Wilhelmsen
P Jon Lester
P Bobby Parnell
P Johnny Cueto
P Gio Gonzalez
P Johan Santana
Bn Vance Worley
Bn Trevor Bauer
DL Roy Halladay

The other team is playing Ike davis and Alexi Amarista at MI and CI. I would give away Uggla, Freese and Johan Santana for Cargo. He also has Halladay, Juan Pierre, Rever, Melky Cabera, Ichiro and Carlos Quintin for Outfielders. Does this leave my pitching too thin? It would free up space to play Pedroia, Plouffe and Cargo at UTL.

EDIT: I just added Francisco Rodriguez and traded Addison Reed for Anibal Sanchez. I think this makes my pitching a lot safer even if I gave up Santana. Still looking for advice though.

Do it. Your staff of Halladay, Lester, Gonzalez, Cueto, and change should hold the fort in this transaction. You could try to swap Worley for Santana to give a little less over if you wish. I would say go for it either way.

I just added K-Rod and traded Addison Reed for Anibal Sanchez. That beefs up the Roto more so thinking of sending the offer w/Johan. I had to drop Bauer but he seems un startable at this point due to his control problems.
