I love having Pujols, and should get good production out of Cano. I think, on offense, that I am too speed heavy. I'll probably need to package a couple for some power numbers. With pitching, I am low on SPs. So, my Ks will be low. I have a plethora of Saves potential. I'll probably trade Saves for Ws/Ks.

What do you feel I should do? Who should I look to get rid of?

I would trade Ellsbury for a stud bomber OF and a closer for a SP.

It's hard to trade saves and steals, especially early in the season. I agree I'd like to see more power in that lineup. But I think your main problem is going to be pitching. Does your league have a low innings limit? It looks like you're punting Wins & Ks. Casey Blake should be on the wire in a 12-teamer. I'd do some research and drop him for a starting pitcher.

No innings pitched low limit, however, the max is 1250 innings.

your SP is awful. you need 1 stud to balance out your WHIP and ERA.

1250 is a pretty low max for 8 pitcher spots. You should be much more able with this rule to trade for a decent starter once other teams' IP starts to creep up. You'll have a good foundation for your ERA and WHIP with all those relievers too. I don't think you have to panic too much for starters, but getting a better top SP would still be wise.
