Love your IF. That being said your weak at OF and starters and very weak at closers

 

[Spartans Rule]

Your offense looks pretty good. You should be decent in all categories and excellent in batting average. You may even want to consider trading some BA. Is that Jose or Carlos Guillen? If it's Carlos, he'd be great trade bait. If it's Jose, just keep him where he is. Ellsbury might be good to trade too to someone hurting for speed.

Your pitchers are a little unstable and walk-prone. You will not do well at all in WHIP. You should do well in K. I don't really recommend dropping any of them because of the K's and the upside, but you may want to dump a hitter or two from your bench and use it to carry more SP, especially if your league doesn't have an IP limit.

Having one closer is kind of a bad spot to be in, because it probably won't get you many (if any) points in saves. Your team isn't good enough to consider ditching the category either. Try to get a closer as cheaply as possible. Keep Brox around because he might have a shot at taking over for Saito, but be ready to get rid of Neshek for a potential closer.

It's Carlos - I was all set to draft Markakis and missed the time limit by about a second, and it auto-drafted him. I will be trying to move him, was just kind of curious what I should be looking for.As for closers, aren't saves the easiest thing to pick up on the wire during the season? Everything I've read emphasizes not drafting closers until very late. Did I just not get enough? Also, won't Neshek and Broxton help my WHIP? Or do they just not throw enough innings for it to matter? Thanks for the thoughts.
