tough call.  \n\nHarden handled the Yankees pretty well last night......Zito didn't two nights ago......I think it's a crap shoot.  \n\nIf he was on my team, I think I would probably make him ride the pine tonight.

Middle Reliever suck in Fantasy Baseball.\n\nOnly the top 1 or 2 should MR should even be considered adding to a team.  They are way too inconsistant and seem to go on incalculated streaks.\n\nBasically, fine a SP, closer,  or a batter to replace them.

He is going to platoon with Trot Nixon. He smashed LHP last year but fanned again RHP. He will start when a left handed pitcher starts and Nixon will matchup again right-handers. So if you want maybe a 3 games a week guy take him. Then again, if Nixon gets hurt he will thrive in the lineup.

If you're desparate for someone at third, go for it, but chances are pretty good that there's someone else available. Wiggington has a little power. He hit 17 home runs in 2004 and 7 in 155 AB's last year. And he's entering the prime of his career. And it's Tampa Bay. They're not exactly overrun with talent. When Huff comes back they'll find a place to play Wiggington. So he'll probably get you some home runs and a few RBI since he's batting clean up. But he's not that talented of a ball player overall. His AVG will probably hurt you and he doesn't get on base enough to score runs, even if TB had anyone batting behind him to knock him in. He capable of 25 homers this year, but that probably doesn't make up for the rest of his drawbacks.

I think it's only 3-games.  but hey 9-10 in the first two games of the series against the Dodgers isn't bad (4 for 5 last night with 5 RBI, 5 for 5 tonight with maybe 1 RBI)...and neither is his MLB leading (by far) .389 batting average.  Say what you want, SOX WILL FALL.  Go Twins!!!\n\nAverage up to .392!!!

Man do I feel weird saying this...but I'd start Kitna.\n\nPalmer and the rest of the Bengals offense have been struggling so far this year so I'd wait to play Palmer until they get out of their funk.\nKitna on the other hand seems to be warming up to the offense and Detroit has been playing pretty well (relatively speaking). Kitna's got a good matchup, so I say go with him!\nGood luck!\n\n*As a side note: I think I'm gonna start him as well...over my usual starter Eli Manning.

NO, don't give up Beltran.  Looking at historical data, Beltran would do better to get back into average.  And he bats 3rd in Mets, one of the best hitting teams in the league now.\n\nCrosby is doing better lately.  Stick with him for a while.

If this is a keeper league, I'd pick up Jered Weaver, as he is undoubtedly one of the best pitching prospects we will see in the next few years. If it is just for this year, go with Lester because with the powerful Red Sox offense, he'll be in every game, and thus have a chance to win every game. Unlike the Angels, who aren't doing that well right now. There is no time table for Weaver to be called up right now. If he was sent down after winning his first three games, they really must not care about pitching him in the majors until next year. At the latest he'll get called up in September when they have 40-man rosters.

Imma Saints Fan and i live here in New Orleans and Joe did not practice yesterday, so i would wait until at least tonight to see if he practices today. listen to WWL Radio 105.3 FM or 870 AM tonight 7pm for the Joe Horn talk show and he will let you know if he will play Sunday...Devery is not a bad start either...he will have a couple of TD"s against the 49ers..

Go with Kitna...I really like the matchups in this game for detroit. Expect Roy Williams to have 100+ and a couple TD's tomorrow.

Would say Lidge, but he's already been axed temporarily. He's been demoted to a bullpen role while Wheeler and Qualls share the closer duty. Well, cross one off the list.\n\nWould also say Isringhausen, but he plays for the Cards, so a closer isnt as important to them. Also, Isringhausen is good when he needs to be, as in late september and the playoffs.\n\nWould say Street but Duscherer (who i think would be his replacement) is now on the 15 day DL. If i had to pick somebody,  it would be Chad Cordero. Earns quite a lot of money, yet isnt used. No point in keeping him.

First of all, J.J. Putz isn't doing anything anytime soon. Is this a keeper league? Putz would be good for that, but not much else. Drop him for Francisco ROdney. Rodney will be picking up saves in August and September while all the other closers tire.\nSecond, Drop some of your hitters, prefferably Casey Blake to pick up another SP. If you can get a guy who starts one of every 5 games, it will increase your IP\nThird, get Bay and Ichiro off the bench. They are two of the most dynamic players in the game. They need to be played.\nFourth, once you get Bay and Ichiro on the field, drop Burrell and pick up a player at another position. You need someone who can fill in for Roberts and Delgado consistently on their off days. Ramirez might fill the need for another 2b/SS, but you have a logjam at SS and OF. Make the platoon smaller, and pick up a 1b (is chris shelton on the board? jim thome?) Everyone has off days when they don't play, and people will get injured. Pick up a first baseman or Catcher\nFifth, and last, if you don't already, chek the team daily. You need to know who will start, who's on the DL, who has a favorable matchup, who;s slumping, etc. All of this is necessary. I am leading one of my leagues, am second in another, and fourth in my last. I lost a bet on Eric Gagne, but you don't have to make that mistake. That's all I can say for you, besides always watch SportsCenter and read SI and check your standings. Peace\n\nthomas, destroyer of worlds

If so, here it is(stats as of 4:33 on June 10, 2006, three OF instead of separate because the positions are so similar):\nC:Mauer .384 AVG 5 HR 30 R 31 RBI 6 SB He's only 23, too\n1B:Pujols .308 25 52 65 2 Any question?\n2B:Utley .313 12 52 39 6 He's everything you want in a 2B \n3B:A-Rod .286 13 49 45 5 Beats Wright on career expectations\nSS:Tejada .331 13 49 46 2 SBs only do so much for Reyes\nOF:Soriano .303 23 48 46 14 Would be best 2B\nOF:Bay .313 19 44 52 5 This young Canadian is good\nOF:Beltran .294 17 43 44 10 Back to form after terrible '05\nDH:Thome .289 21 48 53 0 Narrowly edges out Hafner\nSP:Mussina 8-1 78 K 2.67 ERA 1.00 ERA Tearing up batters\nSP:Schilling 9-2 77 3.81 1.03 High ERA only flaw\nSP:P.Martinez 5-2 94 3.01 0.88 Still doing great in New York\nSP:Arroyo 8-0 68 2.31 1.10  Never heard of him?

Looks like he is going to be a game time decision.  I have him on my team, not sure what I am going to do yet.  I will probably make a last minute decision on him.

He is scheduled to start his first MLB game on June 22. Should things go well and they follow the normal five day rotation, he would start on the 27th, but it may be delayed. I think you will see him on the 27th or 28th.
