YOUR TEAM LOOKS LIKE IT HAS A PRETTY GOOD BASE. I DON'T KNOW IF THE WAY YOU LISTED IS HOW YOU ARE STARTING PLAYERS BUT IF IT IS, I WOULD DEFINATELY START CABRERA AT SHORT.... START DUNN AT FIRST WHEN HE'S HEALTHY RIGHT NOW BECAUSE CHOI ONLY PLAYS AGAINST RIGHTIES. I ALSO DON'T KNOW IF I'D GO WITH DAMIEN MILLER OVER TOBY HALL. HALL'S UPSIDE IS MUCH MORE THAN MILLER'S. OTHER THAN THAT I DON'T KNOW HOW TO HELP.. LOOKS LIKE YOU COULD USE ANOTHER STARTING PITCHER.. LOOK FOR WOODY WILLIAMS OFF THE WAIVER WIRE IF HE'S THERE. I RECENTLY PICKED UP BRAD PENNY FROM FLA OFF THE WAIVER WIRE ON A HUNCH HE MIGHT HAVE A BREAKOUT YEAR. I THINK BYKIM IS GOING TO BUST AND FOSSUM IS TERRIBLE (EVEN THOUGH I'M A RED SOX FAN). OR MAYBE PICK UP TIM WAKEFIELD INSTEAD IF HE'S AVAILABLE. YOU MIGHT BE ABLE TO USE A CLOSER AS TRADE BAIT TO PICK UP ANOTHER SOLID OF. LOOK FOR SOMEONE LIKE AUSTIN KEARNS IF WHOEVER HAS HIM ISN'T SOLD ON HIM.

Team doesn't look too bad...How about a more relible closer though, you look like you maybe could use some saves.

I don't know about your C decision. Given Chacon's success at home, I agree he's worth a serious look. I have to think there's someone else out there at C, but I like Hall's chances to have a good season. I'm not sold on MacDougal and KC either, so someone more reliable is a good idea

What are your ideas on a trade for more SP? I'm considering offering Durham (to someone desperate for a 2bman) for Mark Prior or Matt Clement. Opinions? I doubt if he will do Prior but what about Clement?

[Bliz34]

YOU CLOSERS ARE FINE... KLINE WILL SEE ALOT OF OPPS BECAUSE IZZY IS IN FOR A LONGER REHAB THAN PEOPLE EXPECT. AND MACDOUGAL AND THE ROYALS ARE THE REAL DEAL. AS FOR PITCHING HELP YOU MIGHT BE AIMIN' A LITTLE HIGH WITH THE DURHAM FOR PRIOR OR CLEMENT. I WOULDN'T GIVE EITHER UP IF IT WERE ME. YOU CAN TRY THOUGH IT DOESN'T HURT...MAYBE THE GUY IS A DIEHARD DURHAM FAN AND HAS A DEEP STAFF. I WOULD SAY MAYBE AIM FOR MORE THE LEVEL OF JEFF WEAVER... MAYBE SOMEONE WOULD BE WILLING TO GIVE UP JAVIER VAZQUEZ. VAZQUEZ IS A GREAT INNINGS EATIN' POWER PITCHER THAT PEOPLE MIGHT SLEEP ON.

I dont like your closers they are all iffy for example kline isnt going to remain closer. Lance Carter will soon be benched when his era gets blown up. Koch is sticking it up and macdougal(doogie is an unknown)Your sps are solid but your offense doesnt excite me.

[BeautifulBrunette]

well Saminex that's cool but let's hear some constructive criticism as well. What are your ideas?
