Dont go for guys like Brandon Phillips or earlier in the year Jason Smith because they r not guys who will put up great numbers for long.I'd put Clemens on the bench.that's what i did because i have him. u have 2 many guys on the bench!!!!Chris Burke should not be the Util player. Put someone like Alou or atleast Rios at Util. Espiacially take advantage of Rios being hot right now!!!!! DO NOT BENCH HIM!!!!!!!\nC Javy Lopez-I know, u want 2 trade him because he's not producing right now, but I have him for a reason, he'll start hitting.(He better!)\n1B-Paul Konerko-Good. Exept for David Ortiz, Jim Thome, and Albert Pujols, he the best.\n2B-Brandon Phillips-Get a Jose Vidro or Josh Barfield, even those guys r goin 2 b better.\nSS-Orlando Cabrera-Your choice, I'd trade him in a package deal with someone like Jason Marquis $ Joe Crede and get a guy like Kevin Mench.\n3B-Joe Crede-Trade\nKent and Overbay keep\nJermaine Dye and Chad Tracy might want 2 hit the bench. Alu and Rios workin.\nUtil-Burke-Drop\nYour Bench is VERY good.(for a bench)\nOnce Lee and Griffey start playin, ull be hard 2 beat.\nEspiacially with that good pitching!

You do have a stacked team, but what I would do is offer Randy  Johnson and someone like Figgings for Berkman, Delgadoor someone that can get you both homers and RBI'S. Don't listen to anyone who sais you need pitching. You DONT! You have a great team I dont get why you would need homers and RBI's.

Usually, all-stars are voted by namesake, not stats, and it's a shame that many desrving players don't even get the chance to go. If I was voting for the all-star game today and I was the manager, the lineup would be like this:\n\nAL\n\n1) LF Carl Crawford - TB\n2) RF Alex Rios - Tor\n3) 1B Jim Thome - CWS\n4) SS Miguel Tejada - Bal\n5) 3B Alex Rodriguez - NYY\n6) CF Vernon Wells - Tor\n7) C Joe Mauer - Min\n8) 2B Jose Lopez - Sea\n9) SP Johan Santana - Min\n\nNL\n\n1) SS Jose Reyes - NYM\n2) CF Carlos Beltran - NYM\n3) LF Alfonso Soriano - Was\n4) 1B Albert Pujols - STL\n5) RF Carlos Lee - Mil\n6) 3B David Wright - NYM\n7) 2B Chase Utley - Phi\n8) C Michael Barrett - ChC\n9) SP Pedro Martinez - NYM\n\nTo go even further, if I had the power to vote for reserves, the roster would be like this (Note: each team must have at least one representitive):\n\nAL\nC Victor Martinez, Cle\n1B David Ortiz, Bos\n1B Travis Hafner, Cle\n2B T. Iguchi, CWS\nSS Derek Jeter, NYY\n3B Hank Blalock, Tex\nOF Jermaine Dye, CWS\nOF Ichiro, Sea\nOF Vladimir Guerrero, LAA\nOF Reggie Sanders, KC\n\nP Jonathan Papelbon, Bos\nP B.J. Ryan, Tor\nP Curt Schilling, Bos\nP Scott Kazmir, TB \nP Mike Mussina, NYY\nP Joe Nathan, Min\nP Francisco Liriano, Min\nP Kenny Rogers, Det\nP Jeremy Bonderman, Det\nP Barry Zito, Oak\nP Bobby Jenks, CWS\n\nNL\n\nC Johnny Estrada, Ari\n1B Ryan Howard, Phi\n1B Lance Berkman, Hou\n1B Nomar Garciaparra, LAD\n2B Dan Uggla, Fla\nSS Freddy Sanchez, Pit\n3B Miguel Cabrera, Fla\nOF Jason Bay, Pit\nOF Matt Holliday, Col\nOF Andruw Jones, Atl\n\nP Chris Capuano, Mil\nP Bronson Arroyo, Cin\nP Tom Gordon, Phi\nP Brandon Webb, Ari\nP Tom Glavine, NYM\nP Carlos Zambrano, ChC\nP Derrick Turnobw, Mil\nP Jason Schmidt, SF\nP Aaron Harang, Cin\nP Chris Young, SD\nP Billy Wagner, NYM

There is also a rumor that the Rangers may be working with my White Sox for Javier Vasquez.  He's an awesome pitcher the first two times through the batting order, then he falls to shit.  But he will be a good strikeout pitcher.  I notice that nobody is that upset about losing Derosa.  One thing the Rangers have to look forward to is Kinsler, I see a lot of potential in that guy.  Offense looks OK, Texiera, Young and Kinsler.  Work on getting some pitching and you'll contend inthe west.

I would do it. You have plenty of power in your line-up. The defending A.L. batting champ will help with the average, and score you some runs as well.

Players to drop: Ausmus, Rodriguez (look for a 5era when all is said and done, last night for example), Tomko, why do people love this guy he is pathetic. You have hardly any speed, and one closer. That's 20% of all stats you are throwing out, so you start each week unless someone goes off 0-2. I like most of your pitchers, I would pick up at least 2 more SP, you have way too many roster spots for offense. 5 guys on bench, I could see 2 maybe 3, but I would much rather have 3 more starter/closers. I hope you are not playing Phillips over Kent right now.You need speed plug Roberts in for Dye, Dye rests as much as Bonds now. Trade too much good talent wasting away on bench, trade Tracy, Hawpe for some pitching, they are not doing you any good on the pine.

Alex Rios (Tor - OF)\nCasey Blake (Cle - 3B, OF)\nJoe Crede (CWS - 3B)\nCraig Wilson (Pit - 1B, OF)\n\n\nThose guys are doing pretty well this season, especially Rios and Blake. If either of those are available then pick them up and expect them to take a permament spot in your roster, as for Crede and Wilson they've cooled off after a pretty decent start. Don't expect them to stay on your team very long.

1.Uggla\n2. Colon will be back soon, and Matsui is out for season. not sure about the other 2\n3. It depends on how your other starting pitchers are doing. (I personally would keep him).\n4. No do not worry about 2ND base at all\n5. I have the same issue-If you look at the other catchers he is a little above average and he will get better.\n6. except for your relievers very good\n7. You said hitting team so batting average very good, runs also are very good, good RBI.You have a lot of speed but you are not likely to win Home Runs.

hey there sweetheart. i think what you gotta do is drop javier lopez because not only is he injury plagued but also he has little to no trade value. You should look on your waivers for Brian McCann, Atlanta Braves or Russell Martin, Dodgers. McCann is very consistent but if the Dodgers stick with Martin even after Navarro comes back, he is gold. \n\nYou should try and trade Willis only if you get another star pitcher in return, if you cannot do this, then keep him on your bench until he shows signs of success. Willis will be traded away to another team so this will only boost his value soon. Bonds is just not a great fantasy player unless you count walks. he also has low trade value so youre gonna have to replace him with someone on waivers. As for colon, trade him already, for anything that is decent. I thought i told you to get rid of him. the angels suck.\nIts also time to stop the marshall project. I dropped him after todays terrible performance. Once Wood, Prior and Wade Miller are back hes not going to stay unless he pitches good from now on.

Very good team, good enough to clinch top 3 seeds in playoff.\n\nYour team kind of lacks speed and runs.  You might want to trade Kevin Mench.  I know how good he is, but he is batting sixth.  Get someone batting first or second to get you some SBs and Rs.

you didn't ask a question.  i looked at your fantasy roster that you posted.  one suggestion i have is this: trade beltre for a stud OF.  move cantu to 3b and play loretta at 2b ... he will have a great year for the bosox.

Well, there's 162 games in a season and your team looks stacked to me.  Delgado is warming up, Pudge started out well, Sheffield always takes a little time, Manny is getting hot....Pitching looks well rounded.  I would let it ride to be honest.  You'll win soon and I don't think you'll stop.

First of all, J.J. Putz isn't doing anything anytime soon. Is this a keeper league? Putz would be good for that, but not much else. Drop him for Francisco ROdney. Rodney will be picking up saves in August and September while all the other closers tire.\nSecond, Drop some of your hitters, prefferably Casey Blake to pick up another SP. If you can get a guy who starts one of every 5 games, it will increase your IP\nThird, get Bay and Ichiro off the bench. They are two of the most dynamic players in the game. They need to be played.\nFourth, once you get Bay and Ichiro on the field, drop Burrell and pick up a player at another position. You need someone who can fill in for Roberts and Delgado consistently on their off days. Ramirez might fill the need for another 2b/SS, but you have a logjam at SS and OF. Make the platoon smaller, and pick up a 1b (is chris shelton on the board? jim thome?) Everyone has off days when they don't play, and people will get injured. Pick up a first baseman or Catcher\nFifth, and last, if you don't already, chek the team daily. You need to know who will start, who's on the DL, who has a favorable matchup, who;s slumping, etc. All of this is necessary. I am leading one of my leagues, am second in another, and fourth in my last. I lost a bet on Eric Gagne, but you don't have to make that mistake. That's all I can say for you, besides always watch SportsCenter and read SI and check your standings. Peace\n\nthomas, destroyer of worlds

Weaver will get called up soon, I think.  But Uggla has a bad hamstring is isn't playing much now. Soriano is kinda cold right now but he is worth a lot.  I would trade Berkman before I would trade Soriano.  Soriano will probably be on the Mets or Yankees pretty soon. His numbers will get even better, and his value.  Houston is struggling right now.  Check on Uggla before buying. Check out a pitcher like Miner of Detroit. He's a rookie that you could get cheap. He is putting up great numbers too.  Good Luck!

Curtis Granderson OF (going to be a steal if you can get him late)\nRicco Baldelli OF\nIan Kinsler SS\nMike Lowell 3b,2b\nJeremy Hermida OF\nBrad Wilkerson 1b,OF\nPrince Fielder 1b\nMark Loretta 2b\nJosh Willingham C\nJoey Gathright OF\nRyan Zimmerman 3b\njust a few I could think of. some of them you probably could get on waiver wire, depending on your league size and type.

DONT DO IT and ill tell u why ,scot shields is one of the top relievers in the game look at his ERA and he appers very often for the angels Greg maddux is on a bad team which explains his huge slump he started off 5-0 then 1-5 that adds up to a medeocure pitcher and u alredy have one medeocure pitcher in Aaron cook casey jansen is a decent reliever but u alredy got a better one in shields whatever u do do not get rid of fernando rodney hes on a good team and will get in crucial games more because hes reliable and has proven himself therefore he will get more chances to pitch Aaron sele just overall sucks he hasnt done anything in a long time all the guys ur getting are terrible everyone ur giving are way way better and have proven themselves u would be a idiot to make that trade
