@mike: Schmidt for Carpenter is fine. I haven’t heard anything on Casilla since last night, but I’m thinking he’s droppable. Might want to wait a day for more news, but I’d grab Kobayashi if you’re looking for potential saves.

@mike: Definitely worth a flier if you have an open DL spot. But I wouldn't drop anyone worthwhile from the DL spot just to make room for Carpenter.

Do you like Chris Carpenter once he comes back? worth the DL spot?

@scott: I’m not a Sox fan, but I agree. I actually enjoy most of Manny’s antics. Then again, I couldn’t believe when everyone in New York plotzed over Lastings Milledge high-fiving the fans on his way out to right field after he hit the game-tying home run. I thought that was pretty awesome too.

I’m a Yankee fan and by definition not a Manny fan….having said that, the high-five was awesome. Yeah, you play hard and you play to win and its the antithesis of “old school” hardball but there is room in the game for fun too….the hi-5 was as good if not better than Mattingly’s popcorn grab back in the day…

@IowaCubs: If you don’t need Gathright’s steals, then GA or Stairs.

@Grey: I don’t have that luxury of platooning Patterson. Our rosters are set weekly. When Jay Bruce gets called up, CPatt will be benched unless Dusty’s still the manager.
