I would like to add Joey Votto, but Gallardo is coming off the DL soon so I will actually have to clear two roster spots. Any suggestions?

Aside from dropping players, consider trading up. One of the things that I try and do is find a guy that I can trade two players for one of his.





Example: I packaged Mark Reynolds with Yuniesky Betancourt to get Miguel Tejada.





Its a good way to reduce your roster numbers for FA pickups and obtain better players.
Reply:Tough question, but first off I would most definately get rid of Heath Bell. He won't save to many games with Trevor there, so not much of an upside there. Then you should add Votto. Also I would change Hudson and Joe Saunders on your roster. Hudson is a stud on a great team, and Saunders is..... a nobody. Those are my suggestions. Hope this helped.
Reply:The players I would consider dropping are Heath Bell and James Shields. Bell doesn't help your team much since he doesn't pick up saves, and Shields isn't that good. Gallardo helps your team more than Shields and Votto will help your team more than Bell.
