My grasp is slipping as now I'm only 7 games ahead of the second place team. I play in a 8 team H2H roto league.
I just made a huge trade yesterday
I traded Tex,Otsuka,Blalock,M.Giles for Delgado,A.Jones,Capuano
Needed dingers badly.
Here's my team
C. Barret
1st. Konerko
2nd. Kinsler
SS. Furcal
3rd. Wright
CI. Delgado
MI. Renteria
OF. Mig Cab
OF. Dye
OF. A. Jones
OF. A.Kearns
Utl. Hawpe
Utl. B. Giles
Bn. R Belliard
Bn. C. Tracey
6 sp's, 4 rp's need to be played
Sp. Peavy
Sp. Webb
Sp. Smoltz
Sp. Willis
Sp. Buerhle
Sp. Capuano
Rp/Sp. Liriano
Rp. K-rod
Rp. Papelbon
Rp. Turnbow
Bn. Saito
Bn. Reyes
Bn. Olsen
What ele can I do to reinforce my standing. I think I helped it with the trade. I'm now shopping Buerhle for another stick, I've sent out two deals Kearns/Buerhle for Carlos Lee, and Buerhle/Kearns for Ichiro(just to see). If I could somehow pull off one of those 2 I think my team would be unbeatable.
I really need sb's and to cut down on my k's a bit. More dingers wouldn't hurt. It's a 6x5 league R's-Rbi's-Hr-Ave-K's-Sb's W,S,WHIP,K,ERA.
Who would you target with all being said? What else could I do to improve this alrady first place team. As well do you think my trade was of help? WHIR.
I should add, that Blanton is on the ww. Should I drop Olsen to grab him?
