After 2 weeks into the season I thought about making some changes to my team.
It's a 12-team roto league with the standard 5x5 cats.

My team:
C - M. Barrett
1B - P. Konerko
2B - R. Durham
3B - A. Rodríguez
SS - E. Rentería
OF - J. Bay, J. Dye, J. Pierre
Util - T. Hafner
BN - P. Fielder
SP - D. Haren, B. Zito, A.J. Burnett, B. Penny, S. Olsen, C. Young
RP - T. Hoffman, E. Gagne, F. Cordero, A. Reyes, H. Owens


FA hitters:
Hideki Matsui DL
Felipe López
Josh Barfield
Mike Cameron
Ramón Hernández DL
Freddy Sánchez
Adam LaRoche
Jorge Cantú NA
Chris Duffy
Jason Varitek
Brad Wilkerson
Lyle Overbay
Conor Jackson
Milton Bradley
Chris Duncan
Kazuo Matsui DL
Ryan Church
Kenny Lofton
Reed Johnson DL
Juan Uribe
Kevin Millar
Shawn Green


FA pitchers:
Brad Lidge
Jorge Julio
Josh Johnson DL
Kerry Wood DL
Kevin Millwood
Greg Maddux
Mark Mulder DL
Jake Westbrook
Scot Shields
Jeff Francis
Chuck James
Orlando Hernández
Jamie Moyer
Jonathan Broxton

Gil Meche
Matt Capps
Jon Lieber
Jeff Suppan
Tim Wakefield
Scott Linebrink
Héctor Carrasco
Clay Hensley
Kip Wells
Jason Frasor
Joakim Soria
Zack Greinke

Should I get rid of a SP since I'm +18.0 in max. IP already?
Or who should I pick up?

Thanks in advance.

I like Freddy Sánchez from that list.

For whom?

I like Freddy Sánchez from that list.

Yeah, me too (assuming he has SS eligibility which I believe he does). Also, is Aaron Hill available? He has looked really good and he is 2B/SS eligible.

I would suggest finding a better SS than Renteria (who is marginal). If you drop Edgar, than you can pick up Matsui and stash him on the IR, then pick up another SS. Even if you end up grabbing Renteria later in the week, I don't see other managers dying to get their hands on him, so this way you can get Matsui and ???? at SS.

Hill is taken.

And Renteria had a good start with and I tend to keep him while he's hot.
But I like the idea of stashing Matsui.

Though decision.

Whatever move you make, stash Matsui first.

Definitely stash Matsui, then pick up Sanchez for Owens as you dont really need him and he doesnt have a secure job.

Yeah, definintely add Matsui. With Hafner taking up your Util spot it's kind of tough to have bench hitters that are only eligible at one position. You may want to look at Freddy Sanchez or Felipe Lopez since they get multiple positions. I'd look to drop Owens and Reyes as they're taking up innings, but may not be helping all that much

I highlighted the swaps I would make.

So I ended up dropping Owens stashing Matsui and adding Sanchez.

And maybe I add Frasor for Furham or Renteria later on. But I'm not so sure about that.

Thanks for your help.

If you don't move on Frasor you could miss out on the opportunity
