Greetings to the community here at Fantasybaseballcafe.com.
I'm so very grateful that I have found a place to get help for my fantasy baseball team. I hope I can contribute what little knowledge of baseball that I have to the people who need it.
I'll be honest, I'm a football guy. This league is my first fantasy baseball league that I have played for real money.

Do you guys see any "Major" Weakness in my roster?
Should I look into trading Papelbon or Jenks for a solid 1b or CI?
I am leading the league in saves right now at 21. Second place is at 9.
I know it's still early in the season but, I feel a little desperate. Each week that goes by I feel myself falling further away from the top 3.
