I’d get rid of Giambi any chance I’d get. Luke Scott’s worth a flier. At least you don’t know what you’re going to get. In this case the unknown’s better.

I didn’t realize Luke Scott turns 30 this year. So much for any upside there. I guess .270/26/85 is possible in 500+ AB. I currently have the lifeless dried out husk of Jason Giambi on my bench in a 20 team league that counts OPS. Is Scott worth a waiver claim just to rid myself of Giambi’s infrequent playing time and declining contact rate?

If you think Arron Heilman will be closing your way off. I am a big met fan and been watching heilman for years, hes NOT a closer. THere is no way he gets 5 saves

I think it’s Howry, Marmol then Wood at the end of the year with the most saves for the Cubs. Wood can be the closer on opening day, but that means nothing for who will be the closer on Oct. 1. I’ll be rooting for Wood to make it the whole season with no setbacks, but this is still Kerry Wood.

You still think Dusty Baker is the manager? Everyone in Cubs world sees Marmol as a bullpen ace best suited for the 7th or 8th. He’d be a filthy shutdown closer, but if Wood goes down, I’d put my money on Howry first, Marmol second, Pignatiello third.

Sorry Grey… Marmol will not close for the Cubs. I’m putting my money on Kerry Wood. Dude’s throwing 98 in ST.

Man…I feel like a genius now. After reading this post, I actually had some of these people on my sleepers list.

I am expecting a fairly big year from Conor Jackson, and decent numbers from Zack Greinke.

As far as the three sleepers per team…I’d love to see you do that for the Pirates. I know that whole roster and I have no clue who those sleepers would be.

re: sleeping positions — ha — well played.

Honestly, I could list three sleepers for every team. Hmm… Maybe I will. Wolf is not bad in Petco. Actually, Kip Wells is worth owning if in Petco. Garland’s K/BB is so shitty, it’s hard to get excited about him anywhere (except maybe Petco).
