He still looks like he walks over 4 per 9 innings..so ride him while you can....

I was lucky enough to cut Cabrera and get Kershaw in one league. I won by just not having Cabrera on my team any more.

It only took me one trip on the Daniel Cabrera train to know he's fantasy hell.

Good luck!

~Lance But he gets TWO starts this week!!

I started him this past week, and he won't get off my bench this coming week.

Even without his two starts, I am still getting 11 starts this week.

only a satellite league, but thought it was interestin'...Joba was dropped last wk, I bid $311, nowhere near close enough...the winning bid was $636!

In retrospect I shouldn't have even bid $311

I hafta give credit to Patrick (GLY) for talking some sense into me!

Thanks P

Shawn Childs picked up Luis Rivas. Can't put a number on that addition Mr CC ..... Priceless!

It only cost me $19.

Not a really surprising drop by me I have seen enough of Barry Shito to last a life time. Had him last year and thought as a SP#6 this year he would be a little better Not making same mistake as last year by waiting for his 4 to 5 quality starts He kills ERA and WHIP plus the team is pathetic. Dropped him for Redding who makes 2 starts this week Have 3 DL pitchers who to me have more value on my bench than Zito. Can not even watch him pitch. Let some one else bid a dollar for him and contemplate when or if he has one of those quality starts Rather have Hill Hampton and Rodney on bench than him When it reaches the point that you dread starting him and check the box scores and see Mil 5 SF 0 in the 4th then its time to cut bait No matter what Redding does I am actually relieved not to have the 2nd highest paid pitcher on my team Feel bad for Cain and Linecum owners both really good pitchers but SF is the worst team in BB. In order of worst teams SF 1 FLA 2 Balt 3

It only cost me $19. My NL team looks like it is going to have a long season again. With the problems with the middle infield in Pittsburg, Rivas should get some at bats short term. I guess he was the best available stiff for me!! I stole him for $67.

If only Bixler was available....cheap speed for NL only.

So far so good I suppose on that $5 Dempster bid. Too bad the aces in the pen cost us a win.
