SP Jeff Samardzja
SP Corey Kluber
SP Masahiro Tanaka
SP Doug Fister
RP Glen Perkins
Bench Brandon Morrow
Bench Jason Vargas
Bench Rick Porcello
Bench Hector Santiago
Bench Scott Feldman
Bench Jason Grilli

Pitching scoring is points for Innings, K's, No Hitter, Saves, Shutouts and Wins with negative points for Earned Runs, Loses and Blown Saves.

Edit: Left off Santiago and Feldman as bench pitchers by accident. In this league I like to have extra options for starters each week so I can best play off two start pitchers. Sometimes that leaves me a little low on backup options for the offense and am susceptible to having to get the "hot" player of the week off the free agent pile to fill in for injury or poor play.

Depends on your league scoring. How many points for a stolen base? A win? A save? Your league only starts 1 closer? Obviously Hamilton's value are his steals so if stolen bases aren't worth many points he may not be worth starting. I'd rather start someone who draws walks, get's hits AND steals. We don't know what the hell this Hamilton is going to do. Roto he's worth the risk starting, not so sure in points leagues though.

Good point. Points for each category below. You can start 1 or 2 relief pitchers in this league. If you start 2 relievers then you start 1 less starter.

1b +1
2b +2
3b +3
bb +1
hitting for cycle +10
hr +4
grand slam +10
runs +1
rbi +1
sb +2
caught stealing -1

Pitching:
Innings +1
K's +1
No Hitter +15
Saves +5
Shutouts +10
Wins +10
Earned Runs -1
Loses -5
Blown Saves -2

I play in a similar league like this and to me this team looks ok all around. Should be able to compete on a week to week basis. It's a long season but if Harper takes another step, Cargo avoids DL, Murphy comes somewhat close to his career season, Tanaka proves to be an ace and Hamilton steals 70+ bases this team could be dangerous. I think you need Boegarts bat in there over Cabrera too. Good luck!
