Fantasy Powerhouse?

I like your team. Every position is solid except for outfielder and Utility player, but you could still play Sheffield at U even with him being only DH eligible. That'll give you some more power in the lineup, better than Youkilis and especially in the Tigers lineup. Also, I dont like Willingham as an overall hitter, still too streaky, but he's a decent third outfielder.

Your front 3 pitchers are great. The only thing I would worry about it the fact that Halladay, Blanton, and Meche aren't that great of strikeout pitchers, and Meche and Blanton won't get you too many wins. Understandably they are the #4 and #5 pitchers, but I like to have the insurance of either wins or strikeouts because that's where the most points are in pitchers along with innings. Who are the free agents in your league. Some that I keep an eye out for that were FAs in mine; Gallardo, Marcum, McGowan, Garza, etc..

Looks pretty good. Is Sheffield eligible to play utility? I would think on power alone Sheff may be a better option than Youkilis.

I also think you got the better end of the trade. Verlander and Sizemore speak for themselves, but I think Kinsler is going to breakout this year. Utley is good, but Wells and Garland, at least to me, are question marks this season.

Here are some notables bpm...

Gorzellany, Maholm, McGowan, Miguel Batista, Jeremy Guthrie, Boof Bonser, Zach Greinke. No Gallardo, Marcum or Garza.

I might make a run at McGowan because of both wins and Ks, or Bonser for K's.

I think you are absolutely correct, now that I think about that utility role. I'll put Shef at U.

Thanks buckeye22.

I got confused. In a Yahoo league last year there was no utility position, and they had that rule.

I'll put Shef in as utility. Makes me very surprised he was available as a FA...
