Official: [Anything Goes] - Friday, 06/10/2016

Since anything goes, I wonder if I could get some generic tips on how to play a rotisserie league. I didn't know that there was a 162 game per position max unlike with my last few leagues, so I didn't draft accordingly. I had tons of talent on my offensive bench and started falling way behind in my innings pitched (as well as literally every single pitching category).

I've hit my stride recently, jumped from 10th to a tie for 1st in a month, but I am still running behind on innings at nearly every position. My weakest positions are catcher and first base. I only have Lucroy that can catch, but I have Lucroy, Travis Shaw and Matt Adams eligible at first. I'm worried about these guys going forward - I want someone to catch when Lucroy faces a lefty, and I want to avoid the massive regression I see coming for Shaw. I doubt Adams is the answer to that but I'm comfortable with that platoon for now (seeing as I dominate 3/5 offensive categories and am top 3 in the other 2).

I rotate Villar, Longoria, Kris Bryant, Ian Desmond, Nomar Mazara, Carlos Gonzales, Mookie Betts, Carlos Beltran and Ben Zobrist through my 2B-SS-3B-OF-UTILITY positions. I like that I almost always have a great combination to fill up those slots, but I also have guys with a lot of potential sitting on my bench most days.

Can anyone maybe suggest how I may start looking to make a trade with these guys? Who are good C/1B targets that I can rotate with Lucroy and Shaw/Adams that I can trade for with Shaw/Adams + one of my redundant players.

For now, on the pitching side, I am resigned to carrying 4 elite relievers, 1 elite starter, 2 plus starters, and filling in for other starts off the wire. I suppose I will stick with that until closer to the trade deadline so I can build up leads in R, HR, RBI that I won't be worried about losing.
