@TomtheBod: yeah no, i’m like official #1 lowrie supporter, and am skeptical of gordon’s ability to hit, yet at this point i kind of agree with grey that gordon’s the choice there. gordon’s steals are at least something you can point to that’ll probably help your team. lowrie has to hit or he’s nothing and he’s not hitting.

i don’t think it’s a wrist injury thing. that was a long time ago. he hit last year. he’s slugging .672 against lefties and .299 against righties. he’s a switch-hitter who’s on fire from one side and cratering from the other side. and unfortunately the cratering side plays a lot more. it’s incredibly frustrating. i still think it’s possible he fixes it, his OPS vs RHP last year was over .800. so he’s physically capable of hitting them. i dunno.

if you can avoid straight dropping lowrie for gordon and roster both of them for a while that’s what i’d try to do.

@Steve: There you go. Just needed some tough love. But I picked up Burnett yesterday, so that will be all now thanks, Giants.

News/Analysis Headlines Preseason Outlook
Weeks coming up to join A’s: Top infield prospect Jemile Weeks will be the next to join the Oakland A’s infield as he was pulled early from his game for Triple-A Sacramento on Monday night and headed to Baltimore to join the A’s, reports CSN Bay Area. With Mark Ellis getting injured in Monday’s loss in Baltimore, Weeks will be the choice to replace him in the infield. The A’s need a player as Adam Rosales can’t play on back-to-back nights. Weeks will need to be added to Oakland’s 40-man roster.

Ok Grey… I’m about to drop T. Wood. Now that I think about it, B. Anderson and Liriano are on the chopping block too. Who has more value going forward as a utility… Freeman, Boesch, Rizzo, or Allen Craig???

Wilsonian — Tue, 07 Jun 2011 03:28:03 +0000

@AL KOHOLIC: except I have him and Timmy on the same team. And after suffering two losses from Pineda and Gio already. @Grey: I don't think you answered this in my glut of questions earlier, but: Greinke or Scherzer for the rest of the year?

@AL KOHOLIC: @The Talented Mr. Dope Man: nevermind about that EY injury... seems like this was a planned change in the line up to "mix things up". but CarGo just said "it is his understanding that he is going to play a lot more CF and he wants to continue to leadoff..." that might dip his fantasy value a little bit.

@AL KOHOLIC: hey man, i just read that EY JR. was supposed to lead off and play CF tonight, but there was a last minute lineup change that moved CarGO to CF and put him in the leadoff spot. Stay tuned... hopefully EY didn't get hurt in BP or something... If so, i'm definitely going to pick up Blackmon

I know you’re not a fan of Baseball Tonight but Kruk just said Zambrano owes the AAA team an apology for comparing them to the Cubs. Lmao

The Talented Mr. Dope Man — Tue, 07 Jun 2011 02:54:22 +0000

@AL KOHOLIC: yah i have EY too. i don't think he's that good of a defensive CF, he's been a MI his entire career. I just hope they don't take him out of the lineup, i need the steals bad! @Grey: what do you think of this Chris Nelson kid? I read he was a 1st round pick in 2005, then he had some sort of wrist injury, but has been back on his game the last 2 years... anything to get excited about? he's batting 2nd tonight and had a triple in his first AB

Ha! Just noticed the rotoinfo site has an ad on this page with up to the minute blurbs, cool. Blackmon and Blackburn, I should pick up both of them but……they say you never go back…..

@The Talented Mr. Dope Man: i dropped francuer for him,but i think your right,they like blackmon in center,i also have EY so we,ll see over the next week

@Grey: Indeed. I'm actually hoping I go hitless now. Couple of hits now won't make any difference to anything.

from CBS: “Sports radio XX1090 in San Diego reports a team source said there is a “good chance” Rizzo will be called up by the Padres on Wednesday.”

@AL KOHOLIC: i feel your pain man, i had morrow and pineda go tonight, 2 good games with no W's... @nyydj2: can't imagine they're going to call him up and not play him, i just don't know where the hell he's going to play... with Chris Nelson just called up and hitting well, as well as EY Jr. hitting well. they're OF is crowded as it is. maybe they play Blackmon at CF, keep EY Jr. at 2nd, and play Nelson @ 3rd?

youd think unless blackmon starts out real hot that his stay could only be as long as fowler is dl,d so i wouldnt drop anyone to good
