Popularity, and it doesn't help that people don't help others and rely completely on me. 1. You can drop Masterson if you like, but you need a starter there, so I'm not sure what options you have. 2. There's no reason to do this if you're just going to bench the guy you get or Furcal.

Thanks Grey.

I was ready to take advice from anyone. I wasn't in a panic or anything... so thanks. I know you are busy so I haven't bothered to post any of my teams other than this one, because I have been reading your stuff for 2 or 3 years now and I know pretty much what you are going to say.

I posted here because:

1: It doesn't make a mess of the comments section in your posts.
2: I can keep coming back to it and not have to re-post my team
3: Anyone can comment

Anyway, you confirmed my thoughts. I'll try to be more concise so when you do have a chance to look at this stuff so you don't have to answer the question multiple times.

After years of playing for "fun". I am in two leagues that are actually playing for money. One of them with Tony (whom I plan to beat). This team isn't one of them, so if I lose Desmond, no harm if he puts together a good season.

Yeah, I prefer to see the teams and the forums work for that. Much easier to see what the entire team looks like when answering trade questions.
