    I'd say 85-90. Bench is a little weak, pitching staff looks very strong though. Hopefully Soriano has a good year for you!!

    It's a good team, I'd give it an 85/100.

    C - Martin is the 2nd best catcher in the MLB, and he gets some steals.

    1B - Fielder is a powerhouse and may hit 50 homeruns.

    2B - Roberts is good for steals.

    SS - Cabrera is solid.

    3B - Zimmerman should rebound from a mediocre year.

    OF - Young has lots of potential, and Soriano is a 35/35 threat. Kemp is very promising this year.

    Util - Pena is good, but don't expect numbers like last year.

    Bench - Loney has a great BA and a little power, and Baldelli is a sleeper if he can stay healthy.

    SP - Lackey is great and Dice-K should rebound from a mediocre season by getting lots of wins and K's. Wainwright and Blanton are solid and Greinke is a sleeper. Gallardo is starting the year off injured.

    RP - Soria is a good closer on a bad team and Lidge is out 3-6 weeks.

    If I were you, I would trade for another closer or SP.

    Hope I helped!

    we need to know how many teams were in the draft

    good draft, just make sure u keep up with it during the season and u'll be in the playoffs

    i like zimmerman bcuz i'm guessing u waited on a 3B and it turned out to be a good thing

    Even though Soria is on the Royals, I expect him to get at least 30 saves and I can almost guarantee

    And I know this sounds crazy, but maybe during the year you should trade Fielder for an elite SS bcuz if Loney produces well like he did in Sept. you can have an all-star type line-up. But this is only if Pena and Loney produce well.

    I like baldelli bcuz ur not relying on him bcuz he is on ur bench, but u still have him if he turns out to have a big year.

    As you know, Gallardo is going to be out for April or 3 or 4 starts so maybe put him on the DL and pick up Loewen of Baltimore; he's a decent sleeper bcuz he was great (4th overall in 2002 draft) until he got hurt and now he is fully healthy.

    Maybe pick up Tom gordon to temporary replace Brad Lidge as your closer as well

    but hey this is ur team not mine.

    The infield is solid....nice combination of power and speed. Outfield is middle of the pack but if Young and Kemp continue to grow as players you could be in real good shape. Love the Loney pick...superstar in the making. Baldelli and Huff could easily be upgraded with better guys and you badly need a backup middle infielder (Felipe Lopez, Asdrubal Carbrera? if they are available). Pena may be a great trade high guy, with Fielder and Loney already you could get a very good return for Pena. Starting pitchers should be very good, trade Buerhle if you can (White Sox abused him innings wise and he has struggled badly the past 2 years and he is only ave ERA and WHIP, terrible in K's). You need bullpen help, 2 closers (and one that is spotty at best...Soria) you need a 3rd closer (maybe Pena can get you a higher end closer). Overall pretty good if the kids you have continue to get better but to contend for the top spot you need a good backup middle infielder, one more good outfield bat and 1 RP. Good luck!

    75: Your infield is really good, outfield is pretty good, and your pitching is alright. Don't expect too much from Dice-K because he collapsed in the second half of last season. I like the young picks of Gallardo and Greinke, though.

    trade Zimmerman, Young and your whole bench.
