Obviously I have no good closers. I basically mssed out on the run and settled for getting holds and guys that might become good closers (aka Dempster and Urbina)
Otherwise, I like my offense and SP's. Opinions? Guys I should get rid of? Thx.
A solid team overall, but you are punting saves which could be a problem. I'd look to trade away Sheff for a closer (BJ Ryan maybe?) and a lesser OF. Other than that, solid
try to trade gonzo for a rp. you have a very nice offense. your pitching needs a little help. your starters are ok. but try to trade gonzo for a rp. is this roto or h2h?
if you get the chance check my post "how is this team so far"

Sheff for BJ Ryan, are you insane? But I will try to trade for a closer.

Yeah, I'm hoping Gonzo or Wilkerson heats up and I can trade them for an RP.
It's H2H. That's why punting saves isn't as big of a deal. By the way, Dempster is in the lead for the cubs closer now and Urbina will probably be traded and become someons closer, so I think a few months in a few of my guys will be closing.
I'll check out your post.
ok thats good, its a h2h league. punting saves wont hurt that much. now that i know its h2h you dont have to give up a valuable like sheff for a closer. u can prolly pick one up that will pop out of nowhere. but still, see if you can trade gonzo.

Yeah, I will. I have a feeling he won't carry much value until the season starts, but i'll see what I can get.
