Votto is gold here. The NL is very poor for 1B this year, and Votto is the exception. You have some offensive balance: 5 guys with 20 bombs, 4 with 90 RBI, But only Votto had 100 R or 90 BB, though McC had 89. Speed is a bit of a concern. SS is a bigger one. You need to improve on Scutaro, because he may have gotten old fast.

On the pitching side, you have to love the bullpen. SP needs work. I like Luebke, but as your #1, he leaves a lot to be desired. Garcia is not even a good #3. With your bullpen you can cobble a third SP up out of MR, if your appearance rules allow it.

Pick up Pastornicky. You need his possibilities.
