keep griffey. Sometimes you just have to forfit a catagory for the greater good of the whole team. Griffey can get you so much more in other stats then roberts can.

I disagree if anything you can afford to trade speed.  Weeks, Granderson and Sizemore are all SB threats.  You could move one for some power, or drop Wilson for a more productive OF. Maybe trade Howard for a more experienced bat as well. I love your pitching.  Don't think I'd drop anybody when Liriano finally moves into rotation.

if you had a good backup catcher you would be complete. i would drop hall and huff and pickup a catcher and another power bat.

Sure, especially if your league has a few DL slots per team. There is zero risk at this point, since you can just stash him on the DL and he won't even take up a roster spot. He has such a huge chance to put up some big numbers, if he's healthy. This is one of those times where you can't really afford not to pick him up, because the potential reward is so big and the risk is so small.

if you need help at pitching i would do it.  Guillen is a very good offensive player on a very good offensive team.  He's not jeter, but ponson is no penny and wickman.  You get a lot in return for jeter and ponson.  I'd do it, you pitching will be better and deeper and u will give up just a few runs and rbi's with guillen, average will stay the same, so will hr's.  Very good trade for you.  Take advantage of the yankee fans! hehe

Is it a playoff league? If it is, you'll want him when he comes back. If it's a roto league, you might hold on to him for another week or so. I imagine he'll be back before too long.\n\nEDIT: It looks like he's back now. I hope you didn't drop him.

OFFENSE: think you are weak at 2B. Really need a replacement for loretta as he is more defensive than offensive. not much power and wont drive in many runs. Also, i dont think its a good sign when you have somebody like anderson as your util. Doesnt say much for your bench.\n\nPITCHING: Decent except have a problem with ervin santana as he is a very wild one. John Thomson is just part of the miserable atlanta rotation and weathers walks a lot for a closer. Presuming you only have him because he is a closer.\n\nADVICE: probably try and swing glavine for a closer. in terms of a replacement for loretta, you might have to depend on the waiver wire as you need every other piece of your team.\n\n7/10

well, Gordon and Suzuki are no where close to Lackey and Cordero, and since you said you have 4 outfielders, I guess you are set. You are gonna hurt a lil in AVG and Hits, but if Ichiro has another off year lik '05, you'll end up looking like a very smart man. Gordon is nothin but a set-up man. If your league counts Holds as a category then he's fine, but other than that K/9 and ERA is about it.... You come off on top.

If I were you, I would trade Garrett Atkins and Jermaine Dye for a better 3b, because Dye is playing rele well right now and he won't keep it up, and Atkins is a nobody.\n\nDrop Chin Ming Ding Wing Fing Ling cos he friggen sux...there's gotta be a hot pitcher out there on free agency that you could pick up, especially if ur league scores holds as a category. I just picked up T. Coffey from the Reds and he has an outstanding ERA and 5 holds already.\n\nYour team is good enough to make the playoffs, but you need to make a few moves to win the league.

I'd make A-Rod your 3rd baseman and D. Wright your Util. Trade Chavez for a player u need. That's wat i did. I had J. Thome, D. Ortiz, and C. Delgado. So i traded delgado for wagner, willis, and francouer.

Well, I could help you if I knew what your team consisted of and what positions you needed to upgrade.  SOOO, since that is not possible, I'll throw some names out there from all positions.\n\nC--none, all the good catchers are probably rounded up, unless you can find Josh Willingham on the waiver wire.  He also is available for use in the outfield.  Been in a slump lately, but the last few days he has broken out of it.\n\n1B--Ben Broussard.  When he is at home against righties, he pretty much gets a hit every time (well over .400 with 9 homers).  The only problem with him is he sits the bench when a leftie starts, so you would have to pay close attention to match-up's with him.  Also, Prince Fielder? \n\n2B--Dan Uggla, Brian Roberts, Jose Castillo, in that order.  Surely one of those 3 are available.  Also, check for Jeff Kent.  He has been on the DL and is coming off on Tuesday.  He MAY have been dropped when he got hurt and should return to his normal form.  \n\n3B--Ryan Zimmerman or Freddy Sanchez.  Zimmerman is young and looks to be figuring out MLB pitching as the year goes on.  Sanchez leads the NL in batting, very quietly.  \n\nSS--David Eckstein and Freddy Sanchez.  Sanchez is available to play at SS, as well as 2B and 3B, so he is very versatile.  Eckstein gets you hits every night, but has no power.  SS is a very hard position to find players on the waiver wire.\n\nOF--Any outfielder who plays for the Texas Rangers.  As the summer heat in Dallas warms up, the more balls that will be flying into the stands and any of their outfielders can take care of that.  Mench, Wilkerson, Matthews Jr. most notably.  Jacque Jones is starting to figure out NL pitching and should be available.  Let's see....possible consider Randy Winn or Curtis Granderson as well.  \n\nYou mentioned nothing about pitching, so I'll stop there.  Hope this helps a bit.

if willingham is available i would drop javy lopez. i just picked up shawn grees because he is playing to his potential. hermida is good. willingham would give you a back up catcher. he also can be placed in the outfield slot.\ni dropped pierre because he just seems unable to get on base. keep green drop pierre and pick up hermida.

Dear Pressured in US,\n\nThat's a must accept, especially in a league with 10 or more managers and deep benches.\n\nJohnson and Alexander are both tier one RB's, the best their are... you're receiving Johnson + two other good players.\n\nBut you can also reject the trade, depending on who you would have to drop.  The players you're dropping just hypothetically add them to the trade, then decide if that's fair.

Josh Willingham should be easy to get.  If he is not available on the waiver wire, find the guy who has him and offer Dontrelle Willis.  It looks like Willis is having a down year, struggling mightily.  More than likely, the guy who has him will see Willis and think he is getting a steal, but...that is not the case.  Willingham is listed as a C/OF in most leagues.  You should be able to play him at catcher and fill that need even though he plays mostly outfield.\n\nStarting pitching...my first piece of advice here is to check the waiver wire and IF F. Liriano(Twins) is available, GRAB HIM!!  He is on his way to the rotation for the Twins and he will bring you a LOT of strikeouts and make up for the loss of Willis(if you trade him).  If he is not available...again, check the waiver wire.  There are a lot of good pitchers this year and I know there are some remaining on the waiver wire for you to pick up.  J. Washburn and J. Thomson come to mind.\n\nGood Luck.\n\nRe: Is this a good trade...ABSOLUTELY.  If you can pull that trade off, what a steal for you.  You will be very happy you made that trade come the end of the year.

A 18-team league!  Wow.  BTW, people cannot see your FA pool because they are not in your league.\n\nJason Smith could be just a hype.  He is not a everyday starter yet.  be careful.\n\nYou should be able to find someone better than Rocco Baldelli.  And no exact timetable for his return yet.\n\nJ.J. Hardy is ok, but as a bench/utility he is too weak.  Another 1B/OF would be better.\n\nYour pitchers are OK, but not specially good (maybe because of the 18-team).  Guys like Hendrickson, Verlander, Pineiro, they are not in good teams and won't help you with Win, ERA, WHIP, and even K.  You may want to get some relievers instead.

dude you gotta realize yahoo fantasy sports is FREE.  you can't expect them to be on top of every single news.  but it still shows he is starting even if he is still listed on the DL.  so it doesn't hurt you in any way.  if you have him on the DL and worried about if he is 100%, then keep him on the DL until you know he's back before you drop one of your pitchers.  if he's not on the DL, you can still throw him in one of the starting slots and still get the stats for that day.\n\nif you paid for your league (espn for example) then i would definitely hope it would show him off the DL when he is back.\n\nalso, edmonds played one game so far at 1st...yahoo will usually take a few days to a week to add in 1st base eligibility for edmonds.  the same thing happened for soriano who only had 2B eligibility until OF was added a week or two into the season.  give it a few days....
