Easiest teams to steal against-the White Sox have to be really close to those 3. Also, is there a large degree of separation between those 3, or are they all close to the same level of futility?

@Grey: who's your 2nd choice to lose there? Escobar's throwing 95 and targeting early june for a return. Am I wrong to think he can be pretty solid by year's end?

@cubbies299: Lose Escobar, grab Snyder.

Have Ianetta dropping to the DL. Do I drop Kelvim Escobar, Holland, Kubel, Swisher, Zobrist, Motte, or Parra to pick up a replacement? Guys on the waiver wire include Flores, Ramon Hernandez, Snyder, Navarro

@Drev: Braun @Drev: He's looked bad, so he may be dropping, but I don't think the Sawx remove him unless he goes to the DL. @G: Grabow

Thoughts on Papelbon…still a $12 Salad? Some rumblings that he’s not completely healthy…anybody heard anything?

Fernando Martinez anyone? He was called-up today and immediately inserted in the ailing Mets line-up. From Yahoo:

—
“When I get a young player, I like to put him in the lineup right away,” Manuel said.

Martinez was batting .291 and leading the International League with 25 extra-base hits when the Mets selected his contract from Buffalo.
—

How does he compare with Rasmus, LaPorta, Snider, Schafer and co?

@I’m Keith Hernandez: Tomato-tomahto. Reynolds is obviously hotter right now, they're both not necessary on the same team. @Robert: Porcello's better.

Jenks is not closing!!! WTF

Porcello is in my league’s free agent pool. Is he for real? I have R. Romero. Is Porcello a better bet, long term?

How do you value Chris Davis and Mark Reynolds now? I have Davis benched and start Reynolds every day.

Bailey pitching the 9th for Oakland in a 4-3 game. Bailey’s on waivers in my league (owner was chasing half the Tampa bullpen while I chased the other half). I’m going to drop Joe Nelson for Bailey, I figure that’s better odds for saves.

@Tom: Not sure, someone should look into it. @Nick: Sorry, missed it. Trade Slowey/Hoffman for CQ if you can. @I’m Keith Hernandez: I'd want the Lidge side. @mgeoffriau: I think that's all it was.

By: mgeoffriau

I’m assuming Jim Johnson’s save today was just a fluke since he pitched the 8th, and then Baltimore scored a couple more runs so he came back out for the 9th?

@I’m Keith Hernandez: Drunken Edi I get Josh Hamilton, Berkman, Lidge, for Beltran, Josh Johnson and Chris Davis(sits on my bench)

By: Nick

Nick — Wed, 27 May 2009 04:18:27 +0000

@Grey: Must have missed my prior post but… Got Reyes & A Ram on the DL so now I don’t have room on my team to pickup a SS to fill for Reyes. My bench: Pence, Downs, Hoffman, Slowey & Danks. I have been trying to move Pence & a closer for a new OF to make room but I don’t think that trade will be accepted. Other option, trade Pence/Hoffman or Slowey/Hoffman (since some other league accepted it on this forum) for Quentin?

I'm Keith Hernandez — Wed, 27 May 2009 04:18:20 +0000

I get Josh Johnson, LAnce Berkman, Lidge for Beltran, Josh Johnson, Chris Davis. IS this a great trade please advice?

@G: Because I don't think anyone will pick up Ryan, so you get a few saves from Grabow, then you pick up Ryan again when he becomes the closer, which may not happen until July and when it does it might be ugly.

@AL KOHOLIC: Nice to have you back. Things aren't the same without you. Just traded for A-Gonz, figures he would get sick. Murphy's law.
