Either these people are really loyal/hopeful they turn it around, stupid, or not willing to take a flyer on a prospect like all of the RCLers desperately need. I picked up Frenchie a week or two ago in one of the leagues and cut him today for Baker. I'd like to think I was in the hopeful category instead of stupid. Re: Baker - with Helton's back acting up and The Deer Hunter apparently on the losing end of a game of baseball roulette recently what are the thoughts on Baker's playing time? He's definitely doing everything he can to keep a roster spot. @IowaCubs: Its funny to see the players stubbornly held onto in my 2 10 team h2h leagues when the same players are getting cut in the RCL.

My limp-ass RCL bullpen of Saito, Sherrill, Wheeler and Kobayashi is suddenly looking kind of okay! Junky Closers(tm) -- you gotta love 'em! Also: Another quality start from Cueto.
