put me in the like, don't love your team camp.
I'd like it a bit better if you are using OBP instead of AVG on offense. Pretty solid mix of speed and power...and if Heyward pops that would be an added bonus. Lots of flexibility in your IF which I like...although I hate Tejada at SS in a 12 man league.
Pitching is going to be an issue. You have 2/3 of the TOR bullpen, but you never know who is getting the save and when - so you may be wasting valuable roster space each week. Soria is great, but on a bad team...some weeks you'll be good, some weeks he'll hurt you. And you have Saito and Wagner which is okay I guess. Your SP is going to be dangerous each week.
Arroyo, Bronson SP CIN
Halladay, Roy SP PHI
Santana, Ervin SP ANA
Saunders, Joe SP ANA
Vazquez, Javier SP NYY
Correia, Kevin SP SD
Duchscherer, Justin SP OAK
Pineiro, Joel SP ANA
Wells, Randy SP CHC
Arroyo/Santana and Saunders have the strong possibility of being ratio killers. I'm not sold on Vazquez either yet.
And then you have three guys I do like (Correia, Wells & Duchscher). The problem is, outside of Halladay - you really are going to have to do a ton of juggling with your pitchers and hope for the best.

yeah, i'm pretty much on board with everythign you say. I do a pretty good job compared to the rest of the league workig the waivers, so I'm pretty sure I get get another solid closer at point.

I'd trade Ellsbury, I don't think fast guys without power are worth as much in H2H leagues.
Your pitching is weak but it won't hurt you as much in H2H, use those bench spots on other starters and hope to load up on 2 start guys week to week. When you have an ace like Halladay the need for depth behind him decreases, Javy Vazquez (in H2H, not roto) should be a solid #2 and Ervin Santana could be a hidden gem this year.
Tejada's nothing special, but most shortstops after Han Ram are either too expensive or suck.
I think your weakest spots are Delmon Young, Casey Blake, and Kurt Suzuki. You could use Ellsbury to upgrade one or more of those spots. I'd focus on Suzuki and Blake (more likely) since I'd bet on Heyward replacing Delmon sooner rather than later.

Delmon & Blake are backups....you saying I need to upgrade my backups?

They're not starting?If that's the case I'd drop them and speculate on a couple of arms instead. If you need a bat off waivers in-season you'll find someone just as good as those guys. If the McCann or V Mart owners are speed starved I'd pitch them an offer including Ellsbury.
Projected Starters:C - Suzuki1b - Votto2b - Beckham3b - ReynoldsSS - TejadaOF - Ellsbury, Bay PenceUT - ZobristBench - LaRoche, Blake, Young, HeywardAs I look at it now, I'm definitely offense heavy
