9 IP minimum? You're kidding. Start all your RP's and Felix every week.....that should assure you S, ERA, WHIP every time.

This doesn't strike me as that strong of a team for only an 8 Team league.

In an 8 team league with Beckham as your everyday 3b, you may not like the results. I'd consider selling Pedroia to upgrade at 3b since Beckham will be 2b eligible after a week and a half of baseball.

Thanks for the feedback. The 3B worth it went early so I grabbed Pedroia and targeted Beckham for late. I can always throw Prado in at 2B if I can get a taker for Pedroia that gives me a stronger 3B.

You have more speed than you need. I would trade Pierre for a little more pop, or if you can't get decent value for him, maybe Crawford. But having of both of them plus Andrus is a little much.

I would agree with this......and I'd consider Crawford since that name will get you the other team's attention. I'd consider even packaging Crawford/Pedroia for a stud 3b. That's my opinion of course but I think a stud 3b is big. OF can be plucked from the WW or had more cheap through trade but good 3b's are rare. You've got the potential for a really nice 2b in Beckham too.

lots of speed on this team. Just a trade or two away from being a contender

At the halfway point I'm sitting a game above .500 in the middle of the pack. Prado has been HUGE for me and I dumped D.Lee for D.Ortiz just as his hot streak started. A.Beltre has been a big pickup too.

Injuries have hurt with Ethier, Pedroia and Heyward missing time and being limited. Mauer had a big game last night. I'm hoping the MVP returns for the second half. Here's the squad currently:

C: Mauer

1B: D.Ortiz

2B: Prado

3B: Beltre

SS: Andrus

OF: Ethier, C.Lee, Crawford, Podsednik

UT: Heyward, Quentin

DL: Pedroia

SP: Felix, Hughes, Cain, Cahill, Jurjens, Liriano, Scherzer, Hudson, Price

RP: Rivera, Papelbon, Cordero, Gregg, Dotel

I have a waiver move pending for Volquez, dropping Scherzer.
