I got the greatest starting rotation ever in just the dream draft. F. Hernandez Lincecum Webb Cain Kuroda Kendrick (basically a slower throwing Kuroda w/o 2-seamer) Yes, I use a 6 man rotatiuon. It gives everyone good rest so I dont have to start my relievers like I had to last year. If anyone thinks they can convince me out of this strategy, you can try. |

By the way my closer is K-Rod (Francisco Rodriguez). |

hmm I'd get rid of Webb and put in CC, or Josh Beckett. |

Sabathia actually isn't all that great in this game and the last one. Beckett wasn't that good in the last one, but he's way better in this one. |

I would say to make a 4 or 5 man rotation and put the left over starter(s) at long-relief. This way you have good starting and relief. |

This is my fantasy team rotation for season mode... 1-B. Webb (excellent, moderately priced SP) 2-J. Maine (good pitch selection and movement, cheap) 3-C.M. Wang (a poor man's Beckett) 4-T. Wakefield (moderately priced, I've gotten multiple 20+ K outings from him) 5-R. Hill (a good, cheap LHP) 6-J. Shields (moderately priced and 6-7 years until FA) 7-C. Durbin (decent spot starter/long reliever) AAA T. Gorzelanny (another good LHP, more or less equal to Hill) W. Rodriguez (another cheap LHP--but not as good as the other two) J. Verlander (good prospect with a lot of upside) P. Hughes (same as above) As you can tell, I have tons of starters. I believe in the "more is more" strategy because pitchers can get injured or worn out over a long season. Having a bunch of decent, cheap starters on the bench allows me a lot of flexibility I might not afford to have with more expensive, 1 year FA players. Also, every player on my list has at least 2 years before FA (except Wakefield), so I feel like I have a good chance of keeping a good core of guys over the coming seasons. |

Of course, unlike in real life, putting starters in the bullpen has no ill or bonus effects. These bullpen mates won't get a boost to their top speed and break because they work less. On the other hand, they'll still suddenly be able to go 100+ pitches if you need him to... |

First of all, you should really be using a 6 Man rotation in this game. Second of all, just because they're starters doesn't mean they're going to be great in the bullpen. |

Here's what I suggest. Have your 5 best starters in the rotation and the worst as a swing man. That way the better players get the start, get better stats and a chance at awards, and whenever their too tired to pitch you can put in your old number 6 man. |

Okay, i just got an even better lineup. My team is the Giants: Rotation: Lincecum Cain Wang Garza (edited so all his pitches have 1 more in break, he deserves it) Volquez (edited to have 4 break on each pitch) Relievers: Linebrink Greinke A. Brown Bierd G. Smith (Greg, not Great) Franklin Closer: Jenks Here's the lineup: Bill Hall 3B McLouth (edited to D,B,B,D,D) CF Hawpe RF Braun LF A. Gonzalez 1B (edited to A in power) Phillips 2B Y. Escobar SS Doumit C Bench: Saltalamacchia Iwamura H. Kendrick DH Denorfia Garko Lincecum had a 3 hit complete game, no walks. Wang had a 4 hit, 2-run game, Jenks with the save. That's as far as I've gotten. Tell me what you think I have a trade pending: Doumit, B. Hall, and McLouth for Coste (Edited to have D, D, E, D, D), B.J. Upton, and Figgins. It saves me almost 2000 in salary and improves me in 3 positions. |
