Rate my team v.1,400,300.328

[Roast]

So this is an NSBB league so it may look familiar to some here. Anyway, it's a 12 person H2H league where the stats are:

R, 1B, 2B, 3B, HR, RBI, SB, BB, AVG, OPS and W, L, CG, SHO, SV, BB, K, ERA, WHIP, BlownSaves

The stats are kind of odd, I know, but anyway, here's my squad:

 

C Geovany Soto

1B Prince Fielder

2B Dan Uggla

3B Aubrey Huff

SS Derek Jeter

OF Grady Sizemore

OF Torii Hunter

OF Magglio Ordóñez

UTIL Alex Gordon

 

BN Cameron Maybin

BN Plácido Polanco

BN Ryan Theriot

BN Jarrod Saltalamacchia

 

SP Tim Lincecum

SP Francisco Liriano

RP Brian Wilson

RP George Sherrill

P Ryan Dempster

P Matt Garza

P Justin Duchscherer

BN Randy Wolf

BN Sean Marshall

 

Personally I'm not overjoyed with my team but I don't hate it. The biggest problem I have is with my outfielders. What do you think?

2B Robinson Cano

3B Kevin Youklis

I think the biggest problem you got is your closers, especially since Sherrill will likely only keep the closer role maybe a month or two before Ray steps in. Sherrill and Wilson are quite possibly the two worst closers in baseball. Your outfield might be a little suspect because you only have one fill-ion in Cameron Maybin. Magglio should produce nicely and Sizemore is awesome. Hunter will probably a pleasant player to have even though he won't dazzle anybody with his numbers.

 

Your infield is solid, unless Huff decides to revert back to his "Just kidding I actually suck" phase. I like your SP. Lincecum and Liriano should keep it stacked and Dempster and Garza be relatively effective. The others are questionable due to age/injury/experience, but over all those 4 pitchers should keep your pitching near the top, IMO.

My closers do suck - but that's because they were pretty much the last thing I drafted. I figure the combo of those two should get me a couple saves and then hopefully i'll pull someone off the scrap heap. As for my outfield - Magglio hasn't been amazing so far in the WBC so I guess that's my worry there.

How many NSBB leagues are you in, anyway?

[imb]

i know when im drafting, the first thing i think about is blown saves

[17 Seconds]

actually if you're in that league it would be kinda dumb to even draft any closers. you're better off just skipping them and drafting other players since going without closers won't really hurt you. you won't win saves but you'll never lose BS

really? How many BS to most closers have in a year? Certainly not 1 a week. I'm guessing most teams are going to tie at 0 for BS most weeks whether they have 0 closers or 2/3.

[17 Seconds]

an average closer has..what.. like 5-7 blown saves a year? if you carry 3 closers that's like 15-20 blown saves a year. that's almost one a week.

ok so you lose that category but win saves and also get help on the WHIP category.
