They weren't ten minutes ago, but I didn't really change anything seeing as I don't know much. I'm more comfortable just watching, adjusting my lineup, and making moves when needed for now.

Don't worry, I shall endeavor to make my vast amounts of knowledge available to you upon your request.
They may have banished me from the league due to my string of improbable and demoralizing victories, but that doesn't mean I can't help out some other lost whelp.

I really like mine. But if you want to pick up an available player, what's the move? Waive one and then wait? I read the rules but they were unclear. To me.
Best of Luck all.

All players are on waivers for a couple of days after the draft. After that you can add/drop at your leisure but players who are on waivers go according to the waiver priority line.

Sweet. I just don't think I need 3 SP on my bench. OMR is there a way to view everyone's team? I'll get in there and look around next week when I get a chance.
Have a great time at the game, what a thrill.

I am going to have the greatest infield anybody has ever seen for 5 months. Adrian Gonzalez, Utley, A-Rod and Rollins. Alexei Ramirez backs up 2 and ss when he's not whaling in the outfield. Plus pretty good outfielders and what I think is going to be one of the top producing catchers. Sandoval is gonna play every day at 3rd. Starting pitchers are young young young. Crappy closers, though.
You can view everybody's team at the league page.

Adrian Gonzalez would almost be a first round pick if he wasn't stuck at petco for half of his games.

I gotta ask. If I hadn't taken Rodriguez at 29, would you have taken him at 30/31?

No. I'm really concerned about that hip. I had a hip flexor issue one time, and it took forever to get right. Compound joint issues concern me. I hope he comes back.

I coulda had Bay then. Oh well. I don't mind getting stuck with Vladdy. I had them very close but I favored Bay a tiny bit for the age factor.

A-Rod may come back and be better than ever. But this is going to be a tough year for him all around I'm guessing. He's not the most solid guy emotionally anyway, and things might get real wrong.
I feel REAL good about my team. Now I just need to figure out how to actually play and I'll be alright.
As far as the bench players go, can you rotate in a SP for his start and then pull him out? I'm guessing no as we only have so many moves right? I need to get my game face on.

Moving players around within your roster does not count as a move. Nor do trades. Free agent and waiver acquisitions are the only things that count as moves. You should be shuffling players on your roster daily.
If a divorce didn't fuck Rodriguez up I don't think any of that other mental bullshit will either. Every report I read on the surgery is that it went perfectly. A big risk on my part, I know, but the potential upside is enormous.
