********THERE’S A NEW POST FOR FOLLOWUPS.********

@XNadyMen: Agree with Fingers.

@herschel: Johnson’s currently have a better season, so I’m not sure I’d even bother, but the trade’s fair.

@ron mexico’s papi: Bench Alexei… Or trade three bench bats.

@Christian Lauffer: I’ll post something in tomorrow’s roundup, for now:

Thanks in advance.

Of course now that I’ve said that, he’ll probably get shelled. Padilla’s burned me too many times to count.

As an aside, because this is a keeper league, the teams that are in contention in a year tend to amass some pretty phenomenal lineups. My current lineup is:

C: Joe Mauer (kept through 2013)
1B: Mark Teixeira (kept through 2010…acquired 6 weeks ago)
2B: Aaron Hill (kept through 2011)
SS: Jose Reyes (will be kept through 2014)
3B: Kevin Youkilis (kept through 2010)
CI: Adam Dunn (kept through 2010…acquired in an offseason trade)
MI: Derek Jeter (kept through 2010)
OF: Matt Holliday (kept through 2010…acquired in 4 weeks ago)
OF: Alex Rios (kept through 2011)
OF: Carlos Quentin (kept through 2012)
OF: Mike Stanton (likely to be kept through 2013)
Util: Aubrey Huff
Bench: Jose Tabata (could be kept)
Bench: Alexei Ramirez (kept through 2011)
Bench: Yadier Molina
DL: Chase Utley (kept through 2010…acquired 6 weeks ago)

SP: Adam Wainwright (kept through 2012)
SP: Clayton Kershaw (kept through 2010)
RP: Rafael Soriano
RP: Carlos Marmol (will likely be kept through either 2011 or 2012)
P: Yovani Gallardo (kept through 2010…acquired 6 weeks ago)
P: Cole Hamels (will likely be kept through either 2011 or 2012)
P: Bobby Jenks
P: Francisco Cordero
P: Kevin Gregg
Bench: Gavin Floyd (could be kept)
Bench: Chris Carpenter (could be kept)

I’m way behind on innings, but the only counting stat I need in pitching is the W.

@Wilsonian: What Poon said.

@CalCheats: I don’t like it for him.

@Jacko: Nice to see you, Jacko. I’d hold Kemp.

@NLFantasyBB: Gotcha re: Hammel.

Questionable decisions with Hammel pitching. He strikes out Rollins with runners on 2nd/3rd for the 2nd out. Then he faces Polanco who bats .315+…. gives up a hit to score a run and is pulled before facing Old Man Ibanez and his .255 BA. Of course Flores gave up Hammel’s run. Not a great outing but definitely short-changed on the 1$.

In need of advice. I’m in a dynasty league, keep full rosters forever, no salaries. I’m looking to improve my pitching. Right now I have three offers.

I can trade Matt Kemp for either Haren, Verlander, or Latos.

Help?

My friends gets:
Posey
Granderson
Delmon Young
Volquez

My friend gives:
Braun
Haren
Wieters

Should he do it?

Thoughts on Adam Lind’s power outage compared to 2009? Bet on a bounce back 2011? I might be able to get him in my mixed keeper league and wanted to know if he is worth a keeper slot. You get 9 slots per team and its an 11 team league.

Thanks,

Spartacus.

@Frank Kim: I’d start both.

@Wilsonian: He should be owned, but Becks is tough to drop for him.

@3FingersBrown: Workman-like!

@bravo: I’d start all.

Pavano @ KC
Hamels vs Ari
Lilly @ Hou
Verlander @ TB

Who should I start? I was planning on the first three…and on the fence with Verlander.

@Wilsonian: It’s a shame but yeah pretty much everyone on the FLA coasts are from NY – half my family lives down there. It’s god’s waiting room. When the Mets play the Fish, it sounds like a home game. Same for Rays vs. Yanks.

@Grey: point duly noted. The scab is staying put. Would you drop Becks in a 16 Team H2H Keeper for Logan Morrison? Becks is riding my pine, and I already have Dom Brown on the bench as well. But Morrison will have 1B/OF eligibility once he plays a few games in place of the Curly Coghlan.
