@Smorgie S. Board: Sorry it took so long to post your comment, was in the spam filter for some reason. Sandford and Son references deserve better.

I wonder what Grady’s value would be on the market. Don’t think I’d trade Granderson for him, I wouldn’t see what the point’d be had I the Grandy. (“Grandy for Grady” sounds like the title of a Sanford & Son episode, where Grady finds a thousand dollar bill on the street and wrestles with the moral dilemma of keeping it or just spending it on Ripple.)

Re: Pablo Sandoval, Neil Everett called out “Kung Fu Panda!” during his HR highlight on SportsCenter last night. I <3 that!

Re: Punting Catchers. Grey, if I ever buy you a daquiri, it will be exclusively because of Razzball's piece on injury risk pitchers and your continued advice to simply punt catcher. Both pieces of advice have been berry berry hepful indeed.

Re: Sean Rodriguez. Yay! I think he'll have to homer every game for two weeks before Scioscia gives him a plate of scungili and tells him he's a made man or however that goes down in Anaheim (their Latino players must get very confused), but the kid seems to have pop! And/or pizzazz!

@Grey: I'm just an angry guy who's opponent in H2H grabbed DeRosa for the one-day flier. Your words were salt in the wound.

@Jesse: Depends who you're dropping for that piece. @Tony Y: Ubaldo ***********PLEASE TAKE FOLLOWUPS TO NEW POST********

Yo, Ervin Santana just got dumped in my 10t H2H. Do I want a piece of this guy? His star fell faster than Hilary Duff. And yet, its hard not to remember “What Dreams are Made Of” are hope that better days are ahead! does anyone have a clue what I am talking about?

@ThePoonTycoon: wang hasn’t been rostered i just picked him up since he’s coming back…. and Ubaldo for some reason always scares me in COL. I just checked his stats he has thrown well as of late and better early in the year and his splits from last year show he was stronger second half…. might have to give the guy a twirl, there’s always one or two guys out there you kinda wonder how they’re still available i guess….

so UBALDO over wang for sure then?

@Tony Y: long-term probably wright just because i question how miggy's body type will age. this year give me miggy though.

@Tony Y: Miggy

@Tony Y: U-B-A-L-D-O. it's pretty bad wang has been rostered this long with ubaldo out there. @Euroalien: i'd drop parra or johnson in a heartbeat for a flier on sean-rod. worst case scenario is you pick up another blah waiver wire guy in a couple weeks.

By: Tony Y

Tony Y — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 18:20:16 +0000

would you rather have miggy or wright….?

@Jobu’s rum: I don't think Sean-Rod fills in in center, but he might see more time if Hunter is out with others switching.

By: Jobu's rum

Jobu's rum — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 18:16:06 +0000

Sorry if this is has already been addressed but I didn’t see it in the thread — Does anyone know who will start if Hunter can’t play tonight? Would Sean Rod be a possible fill-in?

Greg — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 18:07:16 +0000

@Tony Y: Get Ubaldo.

By: Tony Y

Tony Y — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 18:00:52 +0000

Other pitchers on waivers I can grab, any better than WANG?

Chris Young, Randy J, Aaron Cook, Ubaldo, scott richmond, and Paul Maholm?

@Tony Y: Someone yesterday said Votto was in rehab, about he best explanation I've heard so far. I'd take Wang over Happ, which is not an endorsement. @Euroalien: Sure, drop BF for Sean-Rod.

By: Euroalien

Euroalien — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 17:54:34 +0000

Drop G. Parra, K. Johnson or Ben Francisco to pick up Sean-Rod? – 12 Team, 5 x 5 Keeper League (Max. 8 Keepers). My other 2B is Kennedy……. If any I’m thinking Francisco first………..

Tony Y — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 17:50:01 +0000

@Grey: i snagged wang up for HAPP, figured wangs a better chance and i was just looking for someone other than HAPP to sit on….

randy J is on my waiver wire too, god i hate being in such a deep league, every guy mentioned to snag up on here is already rostered…..

@Grey: Ya i’ve got em in, i just dont like it. LOL

@AL KOHOLIC: Not sure of splits, but the Brewers could sit him. Wouldn't be surprising. @Tony Y: I'd throw Wainwright and Jurrjens.

By: Tony Y

Tony Y — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 17:39:20 +0000

Throw wainwright vs. the tiggers?

Jurjjens vs. cincy in cincy?

And i will be at the Indians game tonight watching Gallardo shut them out after last nights debacle of scoring…

@bobbo: Meche

I don’t think Webb will be dealt this season just because his stock seems so low right now after the injury concerns, but I do remember hearing about the possibility earlier this year. Plus didn’t they pull a huge contract offer off they table once they heard about his shoulder problem this off-season? I think possibly something in the off-season if Webb is back to his old form once he returns.

I like Rollins, Bruce, and Grabow in that deal.

@Grey: I need to take a flyer on a SP for a while. Who would you rather: Gil Meche (fresh off his 11K start) or Jose Contreras (fresh off of two 8IP 0ER games with a combined 3 hits and 3 walks)?

@Probable Party Starter: By comparing someone who is underrated (DeRosa) to someone who has been great, I was indirectly touting V-Mart. @Aaron J.: Nice! @youngcapitalist: I'd take Lincecum, but it's fair and could go either way. @Frank Rizzo: I didn't hear, but Webb could be traded, wouldn't be surprising. @brad: I'd take the Rollins side. @Greg: Take the Youk side. @Jesse: Good to see Zorlak using his (her?) powers for good.
