Should I hang on to bonds? I really think some team is going to pick him up in the next month or two. Am I wrong?

 

 

Any weaknesses? Is Towles worth a back-up C position on my bench? I feel Pena will get the closer position eventually but should I just drop him in case he doesn't, I'm pretty good in saves as is.

 

10 team league. Scoring categories: R, H, HR, RBI, SB, TB, AVG., OBP and W, SHO, SV, K, ERA, WHIP, K/9, K/BB

 

C: McCann

1B: Atkins

2B: Phillips

SS: H. Ramirez

3B: A. Ramirez

CI: Helton

MI: Kendrick

LF: Soriano

CF: Hamilton

RF: Abreau

OF: Hawpe

OF: Hermida

UTIL: Youkilis

UTIL: Ethier

B: Peralta

B: Towles

B: Bonds

 

SP: Zambrano

SP: Buchholz

RP: Rivera

RP: Corpass

P: Cain

P: Gallardo

P: T. Pena

B: Wood

B: Sherrill

 

Any other glaring weaknesses that I don't see?

With 5 bench spots, you should hang on to Bonds for the next couple months. I have him in my 5 bench spot 12 team league. Towles probably isn't worth it to keep on the bench in a 10 team league, but its a toss up. Hes not going to be a Russell Martin by any means, and the catching position is relatively deep this year so in a one catcher 10 team league no one is going to be salivating to trade for him. But if you are cool with it, he wouldn't be a bad use of a bench spot for a couple months either.

 

Also, 5 closers is overkill, even in a 10 team league. See if you can trade Wood (especially if you are in a league with cubs fans). What is your IP situation?

Thanks for the feedback! I believe there is no IP limit this year. I've been thinking of trying to move a closer or two, especially since I think Pena will take over sooner rather than later in Arizona.
