My pitchers are on the bench just for that day since they weren't pitching that day. So just rate my team 1-10. I'm in a 12 team league. Thanks

Answer 1

8/10 nice team bench could be better though

Answer 2

I'd give it a 7.

Yes, your players on the bench don't need to be started when the other guys are playing, but there are times when you will need to fill in at 2b or 3b, and you'll have to play blalock...that's why the bench is there.

If you go with that sort of thinking, you should just cut the bench players and keep a normal regular lineup without the bench...

With that said, your SP is verrry weak, and your OF could use a bit of help.  You also should try to get another reliever with save potential on the cheap (ie broxton, balfour), but you are solid at 1,2,3,and a coupla ofs.

Varitek is a bum...you might want to pick up a high avg guy like suzuki if he's available.

Answer 3

9/10

Nice team!

You could certainly have a better pitching staff. Most of your position players are pretty good, bench could be improved.
