Fantasy Baseball Update - Week 7

Very tough week for Team Thermos as a disappointing loss brings my record down to 3-4 for the season.

It's particularly frustrating as I was once again near the top of the board with my 678.7 point week, led only by Team Zwartz at 697.6 and Team Cubbies at 723.9. Unfortunately I was up against Team Zwartz so the good performance was all for naught.

What makes it even more frustrating is that I was swapping out players, adjusting lineups for maximum playing time etc.. while my opponent has 2 guys on the DL still in his starting rotation. If I can't compete with my strongest team, it's time to do really look at what I can do to bring things up a notch - or concede that the team I have just isn't good enough to be a contender.

I'm going to list my team after the fold if anyone cares to take a look and offer any suggestions.
