So, given the Cordero signing, does he close? Is Aardsma still worth a flier in a deep AL-only league?

Hef-R is really man-handling the Royals today.

6 IP and 7 Runs, but on the good side only giving up 12 hits to that lethal offence.

@cubbies299: Devine for Ibanez is fine. He's always injured and in the end SAGNOF, it's only saves, man.

ahhh crap trade 2 no longer an option. How many saves do we think Devine gets (in a holds league). I know devine to net ibanez is good, but i’m hesitant because he’s lights out if he gets the job).

Trade 1:
I trade Devine for Ibanez
Trade 2:
I trade Ibanez, Price, and Kouz for Aramis

Which do you take?

@Iowa: We do not speak of the 8/136!

@Baron Von Vulturewins: @Rudy Gamble: Excellent points, but I could essentially make the same argument for Aramis Ramirez's 5 years/$75M, in that he won't possibly make up enough true value for the amount of money he's paid in comparison to Alfonso Soriano's 8 years/$136M. That's baseball.

In a fantasy sense Beltre’s been a total bust, unless you count zone rating and positional adjustments in your league.

So he was obviously answering it from a real baseball perspective, and quite frankly I don’t disagree with him.

3b is sneaky shallow, and Beltre’s a good player, and non Roto stats certainly make Beltre better than he seems in real baseball, but looking at that contract fantasy wise it’s definitely a bust.
