Lord Zola - I did not have the best draft and trying to shake things up before the season. I have Yuli Gurriel for my Utility and Profar as my super sub (will he get more than 400 ABs). I'm hurting for steals and home runs. Do I take a chance on Mallex Smith or Josh Reddick? Reddick should get me more counting stats than Gurriel but Smith could swipe 30-40 bags if he gets the playing time. Rasmus is starting the year on the DL so Smith has a cleared path to playing time to start the year.

In the bullpen, who do you like most overall for ratios and saves+holds: Doolittle, Capps, or Hand? I currently have Hand but Capps and Doolittle both have longer track records. Thoughts?

Thanks again.

Assuming no transaction limits, churning is usually the best play in shallow leagues. A player's value in a vacuum is different than when he's playing regularly for that stretch of time. Always lean to the guy playing at that time, you can usually replace him if/when he plays less.

As for the pen, I prefer Hand - durable, less injury risk and they'll use the heck out of him with that staff.
