This team won it all last season…and that was after I traded Heyward and later moved Pujols in another deal…the underperforming squad turned it around just in time, squeaking into the playoffs and rattling off a dominant run.  Here is the roster heading into opening day:

Joe Mauer Min C, DH
Mike Napoli Tex C, 1B
Will Myers KC C (PROSPECT)

Billy Butler KC 1B, DH
Eric Hosmer KC 1B (PROSPECT)

Andrew McCutchen Pit OF
Colby Rasmus StL OF
Torii Hunter LAA OF
Jason Kubel Min OF, DH
Seth Smith Col OF

Adam Lind Tor DH

PITCHERS
Tim Lincecum SF SP
Felix Hernandez Sea SP
Cole Hamels Phi SP
Zack Greinke Mil SP  (On the DL)
Ted Lilly LAD SP
Jon Garland LAD SP
Bronson Arroyo Cin SP

Joakim Soria KC RP
Mariano Rivera NYY RP
Rafael Soriano NYY RP
Kyle McClellan STL RP

We cut back our rosters every year by three for a short three round draft…I had four picks this year and had some extra dead weight to cut going into 2011….picked up Hosmer, Wil Myers, Bronson Arroyo, and Seth Smith.  Also moved Greinke to DL this morning and grabbed McClellan as a roster replacement for now…he qualifies at RP right now, but will be in the rotation and has put a great spring together…so maybe he'll be a nice steal for me.  I also recently packaged Chad Billingsley (I was so pitching heavy, could afford to move him) and Markakis for Justin Upton.  Maybe a high price to pay…but I wanted an impact bat and a guy who can hit for power and steal bases.  He fits the bill. 

Anyway…what do you think?  Got a decent shot a back to back titles???

Head to Head…

Batters: AVG, R, RBI, HR, SB

Pitching: K, W, SV, ERA, WHIP

Pretty standard….keep trying to get them to change AVG to OBP…but no luck yet.

Well of course with drew's tummy strain you'll need a stop gap there what's the ww look like?

you'll prolly be ok with tejada or janish for now, leaning toward tejada. i have a similar drew problem….*sad face*
