First time for everything

I didn't know squat about fantacy baseball up until yesterday. A friend set me up with yahoo baseball 2007 and I finally got my team. I knew of fantasy baseball but had never tried it out. I love to watch baseball but I think the fantacy sports keep you involved and up to date on stats. He explained to me how things work in the fantacy baseball world. Sorry if I seem a little too childish or wet-behind-the-ears about it all, but it's all new to me...as it was to most of us who first started out. Anywys, this is my line up....tell me what you think of it.

C-Johnny Estrada
1B-Nomar Garciaparra
2B-Tadahito Iguchi
3B-Miguel Cabrera
SS-Orlando Cabrera
OF-Magglio Ordonez
OF-Torii Hunter
OF-Willy Taveras
Utility-Scott Rolen
Benched-Mike Piazza, Chris Duffy, and Dave Roberts

Starting Pitchers-Josh Beckett and Greg Maddux
Relief Pitchers-Trevor Hoffman and Billy Wagner
Regular Pitchers-Ryan Dempster, Brad Penny, and Ted Lilly
Benched Pitchers-Bobby Jenks and Jose Valverde

I am in the process of trading Dave Roberts for David Eckstein and Chris Duffy for Juan Uribe.:clapping :gt

Meh. A lot of injury risks (Ordonez, Rolen, Garciaparra), and some pretty bad starting pitching. Also, Jenks can rack up some saves for you. I'd start him out over Lilly. Also, don't trade Duffy for Uribe. Uribe is not good at all, and Duffy might have a breakout season. This is a solid team, it just could use a couple more dependable pitchers. See if you can get any solid but not spectacular guys on the waiver wire.

Also, don't trade Duffy for Uribe.
Don't pick up Uribe. There is a good chance he won't play at all this year

Is it a huge league? If not you're in trouble...

[Rockhound]

I don't think it's a very big league. I'll have to look into that. I'll see what I can do about aquiring some more pitchers. And I didn't know that Uribe was crap. LOL thanks
