Re: ask me about fantasy baseball v.2007
Any advice? 12 team 5x5 roto, max innings 1225 and max games 155. I'm most concerned about only four starters and three (lol) second basemen.

Note: I am not going to win this year, but I'm hoping to build a contender by 2009. [/ QUOTE ] i don't think young is a reach at all, especially if you're playing for 2009. but why give up on 2007 when it looks like you have a solid core of keepers to build on? A- for the non-keeper portion of the draft. lots of value. [/ QUOTE ] The reason I won't win in 2007 is because the top two teams are absolutely gross. This is the fifth season and I've only been here for 2 of the previous 4, so I have no clue how he accumulated that team, but probably through semi-decent drafting and excellent trading. Team 1's hitters consist of "Mauer, Utley, Reyes, A'Rod, Miggy, Manny, Ortiz, Bay, JSantana, Peavy" Team 2 has "Pujols, Soriano, Jeter, V'Mart, A. Ramirez, V. Wells, A. Jones, Doc, Carpenter, K'Rod" |

(206) Johnny Estrada [/ QUOTE ] B+. i like that you acquired mostly guys who collect a good number of hits, including a few leadoff men, but you should go even farther out of your way in this setup where hits are basically 40% of the batting poitns. vlad, cabrera, and crawford are all preferable to a-rod here. holliday may be the steal of your draft. [/ QUOTE ] Thanks for the grade. So you would recommend trading a-rod? Guy with V-lad has D. Wright. I could try AROD and Wells for Vlad and Wright. Is that good for me? As far as pitching goes should I load up on middle relievers? Not sure what I should be aiming for. Lot's of quality on WR. |

Re: ask me about fantasy baseball v.2007
ok 2 trade proposals:
1: I trade Greg Maddux ($3) for Akinori Fortsuka ($2). On an island, Maddux is a much better player, however: - I have a very shaky save situation, with Gagne my only legit closer - Gagne is injury prone so I have an insurance policy now - my replacement for Maddux is Gorzelanny, who actually projects roughly the same 2. I trade Frank Thomas ($17) for Mike Cameron ($15). Again, Thomas projects as a better player, but my model says I'll gain standings points b/c I have all kinds of other power in my lineup, but a poor steal situation. in this deal I gain 3 standings point, my opponent gains 2, and I go from 9 back of 1st place to 6 back. (again, notwithstanding variance) |
