NFBC Message Boards

There are a number of minor league talents just called up this week that could help a fantasy squad. I will profile each of them later this week. Among them...



Max Schrezer

Jeff Clement

Wladimir Balentien



REV UP THE FAAB ENGINES

Please don't let it have an effect on the riveting post you promised about how you are going to drop Liriano. The plot lines on that one are breathtaking....



Do not forget Nick Adenhart while you are there. They say 3 starts. I say if he throws well Garland sucks and is in the last year of that contract and Kelvim Escobar's arm fell off in the shower this morning. Luckily Jackstraw is working on a post on how they can reattach it.

liriano is tied into this post. all will be revealed soon enough

i'll add Adenhart to the list

hey chest - i thought you were taking a break from the boards. that monster week your team had must have inspired you!

CHEST: Can I sell you Phil Hughes for the $20 you stopped at in the Auction?



Ouch...........it still hurts.

Ouch...........it still hurts. hughes, cueto, kennedy, bailey, etc...the younger kids are disappointing. shouldn't we have expected it? is schrezer next? gotta love fantasy baseball

Not very impressed with Adenhart so far... Looks like you might be able to get him for $10...

another young pitcher getting rocked! i hope he wasn't in anyone's lineup this week. my guess is that i can get him for $2 on sunday.

Is it too late to hope people will throw gobs of money at him? I was hoping for a spectacular debut.

There is one guy in my league who is happy to hear it as he can still pick up one of the top faab options with his $22 remaining faab. Sadly, I don't think he will snab Scherzer.

write-up is coming today
