		<description><![CDATA[Hallefreakinlujah...my god, what the hell were the Reds waiting for?  It&#039;s about friggin&#039; time.  I don&#039;t care about the K/BB ratio, this boy can rake!  

This is great, I go from having a wasted bench spot on a Triple A player providing no production to a young starting OF with loads of talent over night!

He has Ian Snell tonight who has been so-so this year, hopefully he can shake the nerves and let his talent take over.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So Bruce getting called up before I figured he would threw a wrench in the fluidity of my adds and drops.  In one league, I have 3 closers with jobs (Fuentes, Sherrill, Ryan) and 2 not so sure (Pérez, Torres).  Do Isringhausen and Franklin suck enough to drop Torres over Pérez or do I go with depth chart over talent?  Bruce/Kershaw want to be added right away.

@&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-4152&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Steve&lt;/a&gt;: I&#039;m no expert and am biased for having him on my team but I say you have to go with Dioner Navarro.  At 24 years old he hasn&#039;t shown his full power potential and he&#039;s still quick enough to steal bases and stretch extra base hits.  Doumit&#039;s strength so far has been his average, which is something Navarro&#039;s no slouch in.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[@&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-4120&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Grey&lt;/a&gt;: I know this is about Bruce, but I have him safely installed in my Util spot for tomorrow ;-) - so, would I be too hasty in getting rid of Navarro for Doumit? The guy just keeps hitting.

And come to that, is either Doumit or Navarro going to be a better option than Posada over the season?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[@&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-4126&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;p0rk burn&lt;/a&gt;: I&#039;d try and move Ludwick if anyone&#039;s totally buying into his hot start. I&#039;m not a huge believer in McLouth because his career average leaves a lot to be desired, but his power and speed are for real. Could get 30/17 with a .270 average. Moving McLouth should net you a solid number one pitcher with issues, say a Lackey or Bedard. 

@&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-4128&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;BSA&lt;/a&gt;: I&#039;d go with Kershaw, but I&#039;d try and trade Cueto. But if your league hasn&#039;t picked up Kershaw maybe they don&#039;t care or want Cueto. Hard to say...

@&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-4132&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Chet&lt;/a&gt;: Chase Headley should be on your team already. He&#039;ll be called up in a week probably. But he&#039;s available already in Y!. Waiver wise, not sure who will be next, Pearce and Rasmus haven&#039;t been great.... Maybe Gamel or Jaime Garcia, but unless I&#039;m missing someone no big name NL prospect is due very soon.]]></description>

Since he and Cueto are both rookies with tremendous upside is there more value in LA or Cincinatti?  I have Cueto and Kershaw is still available.

		<description><![CDATA[Not that this blog needs a plug or rah! rah! but I just flipped over to my league&#039;s start page and for the last couple of weeks I have noticed that changes on my team are showing up as the lead article  a week or so after I made the move.  Two things must occur, 1. leaguemates read and go look for that player and &quot;BURN&quot; I got him already, and 2. the info is supporting what I&#039;m picking up here from Grey, Rudy, and others.  The key for me is that the team I, OK &quot;we&quot;, put together is built for the long haul and not just quick hot streaks and spurts.  Makes me feel like I know what I am doing with only one year under my belt.  Thanks guys! Now to work on not getting pissed off when my bench performs better than the team I put out there.  It felt great watching Ryan two weeks ago rack it up while sitting on my bench (side note:  he earned 50+ and I lost my first h2h of the seaason by 20 points)]]></description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Not that this blog needs a plug or rah! rah! but I just flipped over to my league&#8217;s start page and for the last couple of weeks I have noticed that changes on my team are showing up as the lead article  a week or so after I made the move.  Two things must occur, 1. leaguemates read and go look for that player and &#8220;BURN&#8221; I got him already, and 2. the info is supporting what I&#8217;m picking up here from Grey, Rudy, and others.  The key for me is that the team I, OK &#8220;we&#8221;, put together is built for the long haul and not just quick hot streaks and spurts.  Makes me feel like I know what I am doing with only one year under my belt.  Thanks guys! Now to work on not getting pissed off when my bench performs better than the team I put out there.  It felt great watching Ryan two weeks ago rack it up while sitting on my bench (side note:  he earned 50+ and I lost my first h2h of the seaason by 20 points)</p>

		<description><![CDATA[@Grey: Yeah its a holds league. Guess I&#039;ll have to watch somebody else play the Bruce lottery. I&#039;m sort of with Hippo on this, I&#039;m not entirely sure Ludwick is going to keep it up, but then I again you have to look at what he has actually done this season versus what Bruce *might* do. 

What about moving McLouth? Should I hang on to him with that cast in the outfield or is it time to flip him? I feel that the only thing I could really use is a SP because I&#039;m not lacking in any other area (besides closers). What does the brain trust feel McLouth could fetch regarding SPs or closers?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Well, holidays and birthday parties kept me out of the Bruce news for the coming week.  I&#039;ll give him a test run in his second week.  I&#039;m glad I jumped on him last week when the June 1st call-up prediction was floated out there.  My outfield of Pence, Vlad, and Quentin has been performing pretty nicely so a decision will be tough.  I&#039;ll now have five outfielders (Bruce, Vlad, Pence, Quentin, and Victorino), Votto, and Figgins on my bench for 3 outfield holes and a utility spot to fill.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[@&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-4123&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;johnson&lt;/a&gt;: I think there are way too many usable pitchers that are safer. With a crizzappy rookie hitter, you get an 0-for-18 and bench him or move on. There&#039;s very little downside and possible upside. With a rookie pitcher, he could kill your ratios for an entire week. Miller&#039;s the type that could do that. I&#039;d proceed with caution.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[bruce may well be the next braun, but i&#039;m not gonna give my first born male and a kidney to get him.  i think his real impact is still a year or two away.  i smell too much hype for a young guy.  smells like max the nazi sherzergfdkljhdg, gordon, and i&#039;m sure rasmus will too.
but what do you think about andrew miller?  he&#039;s looked good his past few starts.  is he just showing signs of whats to come next year/years to come, or has he got his stuff together?  i picked him up for a spot start and wanted to know your thoughts on holding him or dropping him for the next hot pitcher to spot.]]></description>

As a Cardinal diehard, I say Ludwick, knock on wood. Hope he doesn&#039;t hit the skids but got a feeling his great run is out of gas. I&#039;m holding him for a while(with fingers crossed but he struck out 4 times last night) and putting in Bruce every day. That dude will rake, grab him, can&#039;t believe he&#039;s available.

Whatever you do, don&#039;t drop Perez! Flat out stud closer in waiting.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yeah - you have to figure that if Stewart can&#039;t make the lineup with Atkins out again, he&#039;s not going to see a lot of action.

I&#039;m tempted to drop him for Doumit ahead of him coming off the DL (although it would leave a hole a 3B if Atkins is out for any length of time). Thoughts?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Dammit, who do I drop to pick up Bruce!?! I know Grey&#039;s rule of thumb is worst ranked middle reliever but I might make an exception and ditch Hoffman. I picked him up as a free agent last Thursday after noticing he had been sitting there for a month (swapped out Torres for him) and needless to say he hasn&#039;t helped me out in any way, shape, or form. Its either Hoffman, Perez, or Ludwick who I picked up earlier in the week. Only thing stopping me is I need a closer with just Nathan and Street manning the fort currently. 

Outfield is McLouth, El Caballo, Alfonso, Rios, and Ludwick. Im thinking about dealing McLouth now that he is starting to cool off and his hot start is still in people&#039;s minds. Drop Ludwick for Bruce and try to trade McLouth? Drop Hoffman? Ignore the rookie hype because my outfield is stacked? Its an embarrassment of riches.]]></description>
