My only team with the 1st pick, BUT I wasnt around....which left me with a crappy Bullpen; how sad. my other 3 teams were picks over 10.

Please rate my team and trades (on bottom). I went specific on trades and waivers.

Ok, here are my trades.


Trade1:
Me - D Lee, J Damon and B Arroyo
Other guy - T Helton, C Zambrano and G Meche

I REALLY needed pitching on this one. I gave up lee for some SPs.


Trade2:
Me - BJ Upton, E Renteria, S Olsen and B Penny
Other guy - J Upton, J Rollins, J Verlander and C Sabathia

I bought low and sold high on this one. Rollins scared me when it was rumored he had broken his ankle.

Thanks in advance.

That second trade should work out really nicely for you. Not bad.

Siddo4ty4,

Trade #1: Giving away Lee and Damon for Zambrano and Helton favours the other team.

Trade #2: Love it! Worth while risk to take and you didn't give away all too much.

Why is there two M. Jacobs on your team? Overall your team looks good. What does your waiver wire look like?

Thanks for leaving a feedback for my team!

Thanks Wing!

Yeah, I had to fork up a good hitter for some decent pitching. I ended up trading Meche for Lannan.
The 2 M Jacobs was an error and my WW in this league is extra tight. I have 12 of 14 mgrs that are active and have constant change from day to day. Im 5th in the ww so far.

Thanks for the feedback!

Drop Sheffield

[Siddo4ty4]

Drop Sheffield

I would in most leagues... But in a 14 team H2H with such a weak ww. You really think I should drop sheff?

Im so tempted to too!

[alex42083]

Great trades, especially the second one, but I think you'll need some upgrade in your offense with Rollins and now ARod out. I'd look to upgrade at 1B and SS, but your pitching staff is pretty good though. Good job.

Thanks for your help on mine.

[jebnasty]

trade 2 would help

[The Mighty Trow]

Thanks for your help with mine. I really appreciate it.

Awesome job bolstering your pitching... very well done. I think buying low on Rollins was smart. its unfortunate a-rod hit the DL, but your offense is certainly no worse off. I feel Cedeno is your weakest link but i suppose that happens in a large league. well done overall!

Siddo4ty4, you should also look into acquiring another closer. With your current five relievers:

RP R Batencourt
RP R Soriano
P H Okajima
P J Broxton
P C Qualls

Batencourt is the only closer (at the moment until Borowski returns) while Soriano is still injured. The other three are great relievers but getting another closer would be ideal.
