weakest point that i see is your RP.... everything else looks solid as fuuuuuuuuu

what do YOU believe will happen when madson comes back??? im a frieri owner as well and a bit concerned about it

Thanks. RP is definitely the softest spot, but I don't like to spend high picks on saves. We only have those 2 RP spots, so there are a few low-level closers available as FAs: Veras, Cishek, all of DBacks and Cubs

Madson actually just got dropped in my league, but I'm not going to bite yet. As a Phillies fan, I know Madson can hurt himself easily. Also, I think Frieri is pretty good himself. Madson is only on a 1-year deal, I don't think they will give him the job just because of money.

I like your team and am in the same boat waiting for kemp and hamilton to hit their stride. The only two positions i would shoot for would be a solid closer and maybe another starter. The only reason I say another starter is because of matt harvey. I feel like he is the real deal but I am afraid he is going to get shut down before some teams hit their playoffs. This all depends on your league settings naturally. I would say the best people to trade for a closer would be cruz and martinez. Martinez isn't off to the greatest start but I imagine his name must hold some cache to someone in your league. Plus It doesn't hurt that I really like Perez this year. Maybe throw Harvey in to try and get a bona fide ace in some sort of package which I feel is a good route as well.
