@BVV: Morneau looks legit this year. His swing looks better and his numbers are more consistent across the board. In the past he has been streaky, but this year I expect him to produce at a high rate throughout. Unless you need 3B eligibility, I think Morneau’s upside and production will be better than Atkins’ (who is streaky himself).

@Baron Von Vulturewins: Worth considering he can also disappear without trace in a hurry.
Like he did in the second half lasy year.
When I owned him.
I should probably let some of that bitterness go…

@VanHammersly: Don't forget Morneau hit 24 HRs last year in the first half alone. That's a whole season for Atkins (who I like). Morneau's like microwave popcorn: He can get very hot, very fast.

@Grey: damn!, what gave me away? The red eyes or the sudden belief in Bush...

@Joe: Even if Harang's Hadone, that's not a washout trade for you. Kemp and Haren straight up for Sparkakis is fair enough, especially if Sparky gets his spark on second half.

@wakeNbake: I think you're stoned. -- Actually I could see it working at home. His splits are massive.

@Grey: did you see what Dave Bush did today? limiting the Rockies to 4 hits with 13 k's... Im thinking of adding this guy and just using him for his home starts. His numbers at home are great.

@Joe: Put Matsui on your DL then trade him before he comes off for a closer or some other piece.

@Joe: That's solid. I'd do that trade.

One problem here—I already have Rios, Markakis and Hart, so i’d only have one spot for Q and Matsui…
