Waiting on pitching is the way to go, definetely taking the same approach next year. I ended up crazy stacked on offense....1BHoward,2BKinsler,3BAramis(via trade), SSTejada, OF1Crawford, OF2Rios, OF3Markakis, UTIL1Berkman, UTIL2 i platoon Weeks, Edwin E and Konerko. Not to sound too cocky but barring any injuries, this league is mine! Big fan of Aramis also….yeh i think my pitching is deep enough to make the move, and i didnt draft a pitcher till the 8th round.

Sorry, went to sleep after the last Q and A. I like Aramis a lot and think that's a decent move. You might be able to do better, but your pitching is very deep so it seems you can take the hit. I'd do the trade. @mike: Right when you say quick reply, you don’t hear from me, right? Sorry, went to sleep after the last Q and A. I like Aramis a lot and think that’s a decent move.

Quick thoughts on this move....Aramis Ramirez,Carmona for Hafner,Vazquez,Greinke. Id be getting Aramis....in this league 3B is my only position where I dont have a sure fire everyday starter and all my pitchers get K's so the loss of k's from Vazquez wouldnt kill me. my starters would be Oswalt,Young,Wainwright,Hill,McGowan,Billingsley,Carmona(via)trade....think Aramis its worth the hit in pitching? cool…thanks for the quick reply as usual.

I'd cut my projections to 45/15/60/.285 but there's upside there obviously. If Laird gets hurt, or they start playing Salty at first, he'll get more. When he does play though, he's a very solid option. @mike: I think he’s in the bigs for good, but only to play three times a week so that’s going to hurt his counting stats.

He's the Astros' starter. I'd try his upside over Ramon. Towles was just fighting a little injury. He’s the Astros’ starter. I’d try his upside over Ramon.
