FAs this week (Tabata is an OF not a C)

I thought there were a lot of potential closers out there this week.....Meek, Simon and Heilman. I think Qualls and Dotel are toast after today's performances. I can't believe how cheaply I got Tabata on two teams- he looks great so far as a leadoff hitter for the Pirates with serious speed. I wasn't expecting to get him, but was pleasantly surprised. NFBC, can you please switch his position to OF and not C.

probably his lack of power is gonna hurt. if you need a decent speed guy, should be okay for a while, until he gets in a slump and they mov him out of leadoff role

I did drop a C...thanks Quack that makes sense. Gekko- I know he doesn't have a lot of pop, but I watched him play my Tigers this weekend and he looks like high average, good runs and a ton of speed. He stole 3rd base against Laird(a good defensive catcher) Saturday night with a lefty in the batters box! The guy was on pace for 70+ steals in AAA- I like the potential.

I regret not bidding more on Tabata....think he could have more value than Stanton and went for WAYYY less.

Nice move. Enjoy.
