I only have one DL spot and 3 BN spots. Three of those slots are occupied by Ortiz, Willingham and Figgins. What are the chances that Putz comes back, I don't think he actually recovered from his original injury early in the season. I have been waiting for him to turn it around but, I thinking there is something more serious than superficial.

My FA options are not great Isringhausen, Morrow, CJ Wilson, Hoffman, Gonzalez, Jones, Feuntes, Borowski if I did drop him.

Normally I would tell someone to hold their Putz (oofa!), but you're FAs are plentiful. Is this an 8 team league?

I'd grab Hoffman, Fuentes, Jones, Borowski, punt.

No it is a really bizzare format, It is an 11 team points league with a gazillion stats and a 30 man roster. 2 of every position, 4 Utility, 3 Bench, 5 SP's and 2 RP's. So RP's are plenty. So are SP's, but if they don't win they don't help me much.

In this format we have basically unlimited games for batters (20 players per night) and limited innings for pitchers and limited roster spots for pitchers. Consequently, I only roster 5 starters, 2 relievers and try to use my bench for batters. I am in first by a wide margin as other teams are trying to horde the better pitchers... in their defense, there isn't anything left in FA for batters cause I have grabbed and continue to grab all the hot hitters with the great Razzball advice. My latest success Alex(e)i Ramirez.

So drop Putz for Hoffman?

So relievers that get wins? Hoffman doesn't get wins cause the Padres baby him.

Sorry, my poor wording. RP's get vulture wins and of course saves. K-Rod has been my "saving" grace with JJ's uncharacteristic start.

We also count BSV and losses so those games hurt, had a couple with JJ, I would expect a few more with Hoffman, but I see he does have 14 SV's. Can SD (Hoffman) be that much worst than Sea (Putz) has been already?

I'll be honest, I can't wrap my head around your scoring (partly cause I don't know most of it), but Hoffman is better than Putz for saves, ERA and WHIP.

Got it, that works for me. Putz is soon to be a distant memory.

I'll work on my english, maybe its the Canadian accent.

Try this: W (20), L (-5), CG (5), SHO (5), SV (10), K (.5), NH (50), PG (100), BSV (-10)

Seems like a PG should be an automatic championship with the tiebreaker being the number of birds blown up by fastballs.

I just DL'ed Putz...Torres Bork Wheel Franklin Morrow Fuentes to add?

Ya, I wasn't crazy about it either. The night Lester pitcher his no-no, he was on WW. He could have net the lucky recipient 89 pts.

My pitching staff has sucked huge, Putz, Carmona, Verlander with just brutal starts the season. But I have a 400 pt lead on 2nd, so its all good.
