      Drop Parra. He doesn't get saves, so he's pretty worthless, in spite of his all star game appearance.

      Nice team! When I play teams like yours, I try to focus on a couple of stats, and beat you 6-4. In your case, I'd try to beat you in AVG, R, and SB by loading up on leadoff batters. I see you've only got a couple of closers, so I'd go 5 closers, and beat you in saves, WHIP and ERA. I might also stream pitchers against you and go for W and K's instead of WHIP/ERA. You should try to get another closer in a trade.

      Alright, first off your team needs a trade. You have to find some way of getting more pitching whether it's giving up Rollins or an outfielder you gotta do something. You shouldn't have that many bench players on the offensive side. You need more starting pitching. So dropping Parra is retarded, I'd say try to make a trade in your league even a 2 for 1 where you get a dominate starter then you have the room for chris young anyways
