would trade one of your pitchers to try and get another bat

that is a really weak offense IMO

[troubledbyinsects]

yeah. you need a serious upgrade at 3B. good outfield depth though and i'm a big Weeks fan.

[Genuma]

decided on my team name for the year: The Freddie Freemasons

[David87]

My team was temporarily named Fromunda Maballs, but I changed it to "Minor League Guy" with accompanying picture for now

[xbrokendownx]

so I just realized I have 2 drafts tonight at the exact same time lol

[CubbyNick42]

Everyone should be drafting Mike Minor.

Mhmm...Good strike out rates. Faces mostly sub-standard offenses in the NL East. Only concern I have is a possibly poor infield defense, but Minor's going more than late enough to justify that risk.

So in this league I was offered Kevin Youkilis and Ricky Nolasco for Ryan Roberts and Billy Butler. That's a decent deal, no? It would certainly upgrade my 3B slot.

3B: Ryan Roberts

I don't know where I went wrong but I feel like this is a pretty weak team.

Do it without question.

Posted this in the MLB thread, any regulars wanna share their thoughts? I know Smegma seems to be an avid fantasy guy, what do you think?

Thoughts?

I think I made out really well. Only weakness is C and I have pieces to trade to upgrade there.

[CubbyNick42]

Weakness: no Mike Minor

[xbrokendownx]

have a draft for a 16 team league tonight, standard 5x5

any advice? don't think I've ever been in an MLB league that deep

[Broken Parachute]

I accepted that deal and picked up Mike Minor for Tyler Clippard.
