Best fantasy baseball team this year. Question.

Look at my line up. I traded for many of my players or picked them up through waivers and free agency. This team has a lot of underrated players that put up big numbers. If one of my players is in a slump, the other players are raking. Only question is, how can I make this team any better? Maybe a back up 3rd basemen or trade for another solid closer. What do you guys think

** currently in 1st with 83 points....

I need SB....
I lead in avg/ runs/ RBI ... Wins.... Could also use K's as Lester / Masterson have been struggling

Why do you have Jemile Weeks on your team, there isnt anyone better on free agency?

Your team is good though, I like it other than weeks. My pitching is so good I dont really want to trade any body on my team. I just picked up Buchholez and I will see how he does, dont really need the guy because my pitching stats have been solid all year. Wilson, Cain, and Hernandez are great...Lynn, Morrow, and Vogelsong have been great. Closers are doing their job so I cant complain.

On the offensive side, where do you think I can improve. The only players I really want to trade are LaRoche, Cespedes, Johnson, and maybe Shin Soo Choo. Choo had 10 runs this past week and has been doing great, I think he is worth a lot for some people.

 

I picked up Weeks for SB ... He hasn't done shit.. I can pick up Y.Escobar or maybe see who else is out there..
Who is out there on FA market?

Give me a list of the top free agents, the amount of people in your league, what type of league it is, the amount of players you need to start (positions), and your league settings.

We talked about it a bit, but I have a 78% rating in baseball on yahoo, 69% in football, and 89% in basketball.  Helps with the bets...I'm in extremely competitive leagues too.

Bettinbig     

try to trade ethier...he has never put #'s remotely close to this yr (sell high) and he already got his contract...masterson is a drop...keep an eye on brian roberts if he's a fa...marco scutaro good for runs and ba...A. escobar for steals...any guys like crisp or pierre available? id try to trade price too overrated

kelly johnson should not be owned in any format. again id sell high on ethier...maybe get something for laroche before he goes back to hitting  .240...u got some good young players nice hit with Cain last night

 

Kelly johnson rides the bench and is there for back up reason. i dont agree with you saying that he should not be owned in any format. I do agree he could be dropped for someone else.

I just put Morrow on DL and picked up houston street for now.

Someone offered me Sandoval/Youkilis/Downs for Lohse/Choo/LaRoche

I agree with you saying trade LaRoche while his stock is high.

I dont want to trade Etheir man he is the NL RBI leader and I did a lot to get him on my team.

Im trying to aquire Sandoval and Tulo in a 3 for 2 man trade. If I can pull that off i will be too good for any team.

East.... I need help in acquiring a MI / SS.... I like Elvis Andrus (buy the guy who owns him ) is very stubborn and hard to trade with... Who/ what can I offer on my team for Andrus?

 Evereth Cabrera might be a sleeper MI, for stolen bases. He has been playing full time.
Or you can maybe try and trade Eithier and Vogelelson for Trout if you need Stolen Bases and Runs.

Hmmmm...Interesting trade... Not sure I will trade Either.. However, Trout is amazing

-------------------------------------------

Couple drops/adds and I traded Shin Soo Choo/LaRoche/Lohse for Tulowitzki (DL) and Pablo Sandoval. There is no way any team can beat this team. I have the best pitching and my offense speaks for itself. I mean common, I would give up if I was in this league. I only have 5 original players that I started out with.

I put Allen Craig twice....

What a fuckin team though. I am trying right now to trade Lance Lynn for Cliff Lee. Lynns stock is high and Lees is down since he doesnt have any wins. I dont think Lynn carries this into the 2nd half of the season. Lee will still end up with like 10 wins and a lot of K's and a far lower ERA. I also want Josh Hamilton/Miggy Cabrera, but I dont know who I want to get rid of.

Josh Hamilton is a living legend.
Maybe he ends up on the Padres next year?
Keep an eye out for the new Padre owners. Deep pockets.

Time for Mr. Moore's to kick rocks. for good.

I hope he doesnt go to the Padres, that would be horrible. Unless they move in those walls.

I hope he goes to the Giants.

Just traded Lance Lynn for Cliff Lee. I think Lee gets some wins and lowers his ERA. I think Lynn is done dominating.

Trade for a better MI, you cannot have Weeks on a winning team. Pick up Plouffe now! I did, but had to drop him because he would see no playing time on my team.

They should not move the fences in at Petco.  It is a legendary pitchers park.. Josh Hamilton lit up Petco.  He is faster than I thought too. And he was a foot taller than Yonder Alonso. He is a monster. He belongs in  Petco.

East,  Plouffe is gone.. I just missed him last week,,, How about Rickie weeks or Omar Infante?     

Yes I would pick up Rickie weeks or Infante. They are both much better players. Weeks has to turn it around for the second half of the season so I would pick him up.

Why dont you just make a trade? You have some good trade players. Willingham could be traded, Pagan, Young, and Paplebon. Make some trades with those players. You have a great OF with Andre, Grandy, and Melky.

I picked up Rickie Weeks... Let's hope for a turn around...
