Firstly, I'd like to say 14 team leagues are TOUGH, especially for someone who has never done fantasy baseball. Now, your offense is in an identity crisis. Other than Votto you really don't have anyone else who will get you over 25 HR. Guys like Encarnacion, Alexei Ramirez, Peralta, Soto have forever let their owners down after quality seasons and have zero consistency. You paid for career seasons by Gordon and Melky Cabrera (although I am high on both of them, I'm not sure they'll produce last year's numbers). I'd honestly rate your offense a 5.5/10

Pitching, you've got a few good starters, but you're never going to take the Wins category with that roster. Felix and Garza are forever low-win pitchers due to their team situations. Closers are strong. If holds aren't a category, I'd probably consider dropping Pestano/Adams in order to stream some pitchers to get some spot-start wins...anyway, it's really hard to give you a completely accurate rating without seeing other players in the league because I haven't done a 14 man before, especially with so many roster spots.

Without seeing the other teams, I'd say you're probably a 5.5-6/10 team. But that could go up significantly if I saw another roster or two

I'm gonna agree with everything that Fiers said and also say that you are carrying 3 catchers... most teams don't even keep a backup. If you wanted to keep a backup bc your league is so deep then I wouldn't blame you but you absolutely don't need 3. I'd drop Olivo and pick up another SP if I were you.

Gonna be a long season given that offense. My suggestion is just learn as much as you can. How many players will you be able to keep, what are the restrictions?
