In a 10-team H2H league and currently in 1st place by about 6 games. Feeling good about the team but wondering if I should be proactive in making some moves now so I can solidify my lead. Team is:

10 Teams | 11 Hitters Per Team [6 Active = HR RBI SB R BA OPS, 1 Punted = K] | 7 Pitchers Per Team [6 Active = W SV ERA WHIP SO QS]

Obvious areas of weakness for my bats are C and SS, although I like Correa and TDA more than the projections suggest. It's funny seeing my RBI value so deep in the red when I'm 1st in RBI by a pretty huge margin - 3rd in Runs as well.

For pitchers, we're only allowed 5 SP on our team at any time (no sneaking in a 6th starter listed as SP/RP) and I'm good with my 5 SP but RP could use a boost. I could drop one of Franco/Burns/Andrus and grab a 4th RP like Carson Smith or trade away some draft picks.

Any advice is appreciated!

I'm drooling over your hitters and 3B as I need a good backup to Chris Davis meh. Is he really going to hit 23 HR rest of the way???!!!???!!! Missed out on Gallo and Frankel. Had Panik and tried to trade, but no takers so had to drop him this week (wanted to keep him if I had room). Ouch.

From what I read from the experts, the question marks are your Billy Burns on down. As for your RP, I don't like Luke Gregerson because of his ERA and HOU has guys who can step in. Don't know why Josh Fields isn't second in line RP in HOU. I found closermonkey.com to help find a RP.

I know its a 10 team league but was everyone asleep during the draft? Seems you control the waiver wire as well (Panik, Correa, Billy Burns, etc.) Not really much you need to do from here on out, just plug and play.

Im also in first in a 12 team league auction draft, H2H 16 cats, and the managers in this league are UBER nerds so I need all the insight I can get. Alright heres what I have.

Heres my one major concern. Since this is an IP league and we also have Wins, QS, and K's loading up on SP to overwhelm those cats is highly effective. The team that won the championship last year had 12 bats with none on the bench, zero setup guys or holds pitchers, 3 solid closers, and an army of SP. Im not going to take that approach, good setup men with high k rates not only get you the holds cat, but they hold down your era, whip, and can snake wins here and there. I want to pair degrom and Kluber up with one more tier 1-2 SP like an Arrieta or Gerrit Cole. We have 2 DL slots which hold Walden and Miller, Matt Moore is on the bench and im reading more and more reports recently to not expect great things when he joins the rotation. If I drop him it would have to be for another SP and heres whats available.

-Matt Cain, Jake Peavy, Vincent Velasquez, Wade Miley, Jorge De La Rosa (COL), Mike Pelfrey, Ivan Nova, and Andrew Heaney.

Not much to pick from, but im leaning between Velasquez for the upside purposes or Matt Cain stash and hope he is in form come playoff time.
