If it's possible to have a mediocre to bad AVG with Braun, CarGo and Young on your team, you might have pulled it off. But the rest of your counting stats look very good. I think your pitching is just OK - middle of the pack in everything but saves. If Beckett/Shields/Worley are as good as they can be, and Bailey doesn't set himself on fire, your ratios could be top third. I think this is a team that can compete but I'd be wary of giving away so much AVG that you can't fix it. It wouldn't be easy to move Braun and CarGo for low-AVG guys and totally punt because they're also your best all-around players.

Thanks for the feedback JC. My counting stats project well and my BA, even though it's bad, projects in the middle of the pack in our league. I'm a sucker for counting stats, which is why my BA struggles every year. I went with some SPs who had some upside. I set a $10 limit to spend on my remaining 3 SPs. B. McCarthy went for $9 and I may regret not going to $10 on him.

Hopefully the other RJ owners in the league post their rosters here for comparison's sake.

I like Netboy's team a lot. Other than UT, no holes on offense except maybe a little light on steals. If Darvish does anything close to what's expected, that's a sick pitching staff. The only void is saves but there should be enough to trade for them.
