How about this one from CBS:



"Ludwick, batted .273 in the first half of this season with 11 homers and 42 RBI. He had a down first half, but has come through with solid second halves averaging 10 homers and 40 RBI while batting .285 over his past three seasons."





Excuse me but aren't those splits the same?

Excuse me but aren't those splits the same? You neglected to include that they said he should be owned in all leagues.

'Brad Penny Has no timetable for Return'

'Carlos Delgado Still Rehabbing Hip but wants to Play'





Like the uncoordinated kid on the playground, Carlos will be left to wonder why nobody picked him (up).





'Brett Anderson throws Four Rehab Innings'



Two trivia questions come to mind-



What is the record for rehab innings?



Has anybody thrown more rehab innings than Major League innings?



And yes, I own him.





Never mind about the trivia questions, I was just PM'ed that JA Happ has to be the answer to both questions by now.

He could also be the first pitcher that rehabbed himself to AAA.
