So rate my team out of 10 and what trades do you think I should make.

Answer 1

Just looks like a typical video game, free agent-purchased/traded lineup.

Answer 2

I think you should look into ur AAA a little bit cause it looks like you gave up a lot of your prospects and young guys. Some of those starters may not be there in a couple years.

Answer 3

Must be my eyes, I thought there was going to be a baseball question in there.

Your team record really looks realistic.

Answer 4

If you want a live a fantasy, I'd recommend playing WoW or NBA Jam Tournament Edition. Doesn't it take the fun out of the game to just buy all the best players??
