What ya think will rate yours, hold onto Bowyer? and do I need better OF? THX

[rscharnell]

I am not sold on the Schmidt/Beckett dual at the top of your staff, both will miss several games this years due to (blisters/injuries). I would also try to improve 1B, at a position fairly deep in power, I think you can do better then prince.

[Invictus]

I notice you have a lot of young talent that your counting on to produce, and although i agree that many of them will have good years (for example Prince fielder, can't WAIT to see what he can do this year ), it can still be VERY risky to depend on them. Your pitching, although not horrible, isn't mind blowing either. Bonderman and Schmidt are both big names that i like to see, but schmidt, again, is still a small risk.

My evaluation is this - if all of your risks pan out, you have a good chance to contend, but if a few fail to produce, i can easily see you sitting somewhere in the middle as well - Good luck this year .

[Omaha Red Sox]

Good looking hitters, but no depth, obviously, at OF, and you don't seem to have a stud pitcher. Upgrade those two things and you're a contender.

Great RPs by the way...

Nice team if everybody stays healthy, you have some question marks there though.

[DC nats05]

Hitting- Your IF is filled with ?'s. What kind of numbers will Fielder produce? Will Roberts repeat his 05 season? However I believe that Lopez will have a good season and Ramirez is really good. Why do you have a backup catcher, especially when you have the best catcher in the league? I would try to package Hernandez along with a pitcher for an upgrade at pitcher. Also, you should drop Durham from your team for a decent batter or pitcher. Your OF is really good.

Pitching- The pitching is just decent. There no SP star. If Beckett stays healthy, he could be a top 10 pitcher. Penny, Bonderman, Bedard, Marquis are just decent. Nice pick on Liriano, he could become something special. Drop either Durham or Marquis to snag another closer, because Nathan/Isringhausen isn't enough.
