Need to shake up my fantasy team, hitters are struggling (1 Viewer)

[Lehigh98]

My team is first in SB and middle of the pack in AVG but dead last in HR, RBI, and R and I desperately need to make up some ground. (Yes, first in SB and last in R, not sure how I pulled that off).

Very simple (arguably cheesy) league and we don't use positions, only one "hitter" category and these are my 5 starters and 2 reserves...

Sandoval, Pablo 3B SF

Wright, David 3B NYM

Lind, Adam LF TOR

Suzuki, Ichiro RF SEA

Pence, Hunter RF HOU

Markakis, Nick RF BAL

Upton, B.J. CF TB

Unfortunately for the other "simple" rule I can only make 2 non-DL transactions a year but have both left right now.

Can any of these available FA's help me get out of the basement in HR, RBI, and R and who would you replace?...

Huff for sure, but there are several other names on that list that would work just fine.

Thanks DD, just dropped Lind for Huff.Now thinking about Panda, Upton, or Markakis for Young.May give one of those 3 a last shot in the lineup next week before pulling the trigger though.

 

[Man In The Box]

I would cut Markakis for Konerko if you need power numbers.

Torn between Konerko and Weeks for that last spot.You would go with Konerko out of those 2?And you would drop Markakis?Thanks again!

Without knowing your team's exact stats, if you are as ahead in SB and behind in power as you make it seem, I'd probably cut any two of Lind, Markakis and Upton for any two of Konerko, Huff, Weeks, and Young.

Small league, ey? That's a lot of talent sitting out there.

Drop Markakis for Chris B Young

And Lind for Konerko or Huff. But beware the bottom could drop out of any 3 of these guys at anytime
