Money Contender?

Postby chargerss24 » Tue Jan 29, 2013 12:44 am

I'm in a 12-team, 6x6 roto (standard category + Holds/OBP) keeper league that's a mix of auction (for active lineup roster) and draft (reserves). We have a $26 budget and can keep anyone so long as we're under that budget. Here's my team that very well could go into the auction:

C - J. Lucroy (0.20), R. Doumit (0.10)
1B - P. Fielder (2.50)
2B - D. Pedroia (1.70)
SS - S. Castro (2.10)
3B - E. Longoria (2.40)
MI - H. Ramirez (1.70)
CI - B. Lawrie (1.50)
OF - J. Heyward (2.10), C. Gonzalez (3.40), D. Jennings (2.00)
U - J. Morneau (0.10), N. Markakis (0.40), D. Brown (0.10) ----- May just drop Brown just to see who all is available in the auction.

SP - D. Price (1.90), Z. Greinke (1.00), J. Zimmermann (1.20), M. Moore (0.20), B. Anderson (0.10)
RP - J. Grilli (0.50), J. Nathan (0.60), J. McGee (0.10), S. Doolittle (0.10)

Minors - OF Wil Myers, SP Zach Wheeler

Players traded away: J. Bruce (3.40), J. Upton (2.70), A. Chapman, (1.70), W. Rosario (1.40), C. Hamels (1.80)
Players to be dropped/traded before auction day: Y. Alonso (0.90), B. Belt (1.00), Z. Cozart (1.20), E. Hosmer (1.90), T. Cahill (0.40), M. Boggs (0.30), E. Frieri (0.40)

My team is currently full right at the $26 mark. I had a bloated budget of well over $30 and had to do some serious trimming. Bolded are new acquisitions in trades made this off season. How'd I do and how does my team look heading into the season? Any thoughts are much appreciated and WHIR as always! ;-D
C-Doumit, Lucroy
1B- Fielder
2B-Pedroia
SS-Castro
3B-Longoria
CI- Lawrie
MI- H. Rameriz
OF-Cargo Jennings Heyward
U-Morneau Markakis Brown

SP-Price Greinke Zimmerman Moore Anderson
RP-Nathan McGee Doolittle Grilli

For Trading away alot of Really good talent id have to say u have a really colid team not sold on Morneau or Markakis or Brown but u have Myers to come in eventually to help out there but i would look in try and improve the UT spot even if its with sleepers and young Talent

Maybe Cahill over Zimm to save you that much money they are pretty close.

Looks like a great start to me. I like Morneau this year if he could just stay healthy. Never been a Markakas fan, just hasn't showed me yet. Nice pitching staff.
