I like it a lot. Your pitching isn't quite up to the level of your hitting, but it's still very good. The only real "weaknesses" I think would probably be catcher and second base. You might think about trading a first-baseman for an upgrade on one of those positions, but if you can't get a good deal, I wouldn't worry about it.

i like your team... how many teams in the league? what kind of league is it? if its a standard league... i would trade vidro and put figgins in at 2nd, maybe try to get a better catcher, or at least a catcher that can do really well in at least one category for you. i like your starting pitching, but i think that you could swing some deals to get a little better RP. maybe package ryan, vidro, and loduca for a better catcher and RP

there's 10 teams in the league, so there's a lot of talent everywhere, i was thinking of maybe trading away one of my outfielders and braden looper for a solid reliever and starter to a team that is weak in hitting and strong in hitting
