Let 'er rip, if you please.:fro: <-- thought this guy was pretty chill!

In a 10 team league you should be able to play roulette at certain positions like you did at 1st base.

Unless "holds" is one of your catagories there is no reason other than lower whips/era's to carry a middle reliever. Unload Boroski, Dotel.

You need Closers. Nen and Izzy can't help you for a while.
Try Alfonseca who is returning from the DL.

Dave Roberts is injured, get him on your bench and insert S.Green.

I disagre with fullabull! You should hang onto borowski for a while. He should continue to get saves even after Alfonseca comes back, because they dont want to just throw him into the line up!

Octavio Dotel has to go! Pick up Jeff Nelson for saves. He should be getting them until sasaki comes back in a few weeks!

try to trade up at SS and 3B. Use some of your overachieving players like Jeff Suppan!:idea:

The last I heard that Nen may not be back at all this season.

So he is worth nothing and you should forget about him.
