Have you seen the Braves outfield lately? Chipper, Andruw, Sheffield. Damn... heh. If Andruw rebounds from his "bad for his standards" year then we'll have a potential .300, 120+ homer, 330+ RBI outfield :)

Bonds over Sheffield... one of the best players ever to play the game vs. one of the best players today... who also happen to be very close friends. :) I dunno bout you but either one sounds good to me. Their both having great years so far (5 games into the season). I think the decision to go with Sheffield was more about money and availability over anything else. Bonds always said he wanted to play in atlanta (as did Griffey and we all know what happened to him) and like any Braves fan i'd be excited about the prospect of having him play for us, but Sheffield costs half as much as Bonds would in the free agent market based on his current contract and is younger.

I don't ever remember Bonds saying he'd like to play in Atlanta, and I live in the Bay Area, so I like to think I keep track of my local teams. I remember the Griffey thing only cause he has a home in Florida.

What about your pitching? I was lucky enough to get Randy Johnson, but I don't have much to back him up with. Tori Hunter, Ken Griffey, Magglio Ordonez, Luis Gonzalez. Not bad, imho. Only problem is that my only catcher is on the DL. I'll be leaning on him all season. Anybody have good leads on some lesser known closers?

I have a HUGE offensive team. with that outfield, Palmero at first, Kendall at catcher and average SS, 2nd and 3rd. I'm set.

my problem is my pitching. with livan hernandez and freddy garcia as being my questionable aces.

You all are missing the guy who'll hit .340 with 40 homers and 130 ribbies: Lance Berkman.

johndoe, if you need a closer you might want to look at mike williams for the pirates.

Here's my entire roster:

Jason Kendall
Ramon Hernandez
Frank Thomas
John Olerud
Edgardo Alfonzo
Luis Castillo
Troy Glaus
Adrian Beltre
Derek Jeter
Bobby Abreu
Andruw Jones
Manny Ramirez
Vladimir Guerrero
Ken Griffey
Geoff Jenkins
Roger Cedeno
Matt Morris
Roy Oswalt
Freddy Garcia
Pedro Martinez
Roy Halladay
Danys Baez
Kazuhiro Sasaki
John Smoltz
Matt Anderson

Sorry about being slightly wrong on the roster I posted earlier, I have Ramirez instead of Sheffield. I have Sheffield in another league and got them confused. It's a 10 team roto keeper league. At draft time this year I think about 5 owners were active, and the rest had the default draft rankings.
