@Chomp Samba: Ha!

@GopherDay: Adrian Gonzalez went Round 2 pick 7 (#19 overall) – one pick before Reyes. I forget now but I might’ve taken A-Gonz ahead of Reyes if I had the opportunity since I was pretty big on Alcides and Everth.

@nmdunkel: Thanks!

@Mojo the Helper Monkey: The Mets seem a bit cursed but I like Reyes, Wright, and Bay. It’s a solid core for 2010. If Beltran can at least come close to his pre-injury bat (forget the SBs for this year), I think they’ll all do solid in R/RBI this year with a few HRs less vs. 2008.

@Tom Emanski: I think Parra is a 4th OF type. Conor Jackson will get the job back.

@drew: Aramis. But they’re a lot closer than I had them ranked at the pre-season.

@manfromearth: Dropped Jose Reyes and Javier Vazquez? That’s nuts. I like Vazquez better than Marcum and Romero. I’d drop Ev-Cab for Reyes.

@royce!: Nice Clash reference. That’s my song if we ever start a podcast.

@DrEasy: Doug Fister? He barely knew her!

NL: 16 teams, 8 starting offensive players per team

That’s 126 for the AL and 128 for the NL, a difference of 2.

Vazquez isn’t worth picking up. Coghlan is good if you need AVG. And I would pick up Reyes in a hurry. Drop EverCab.

1. Probably Romero
2. None of them
3. Everth, then see if you can trade Andrus

1. Javier Vazquez (DeLaRosa, Beckett, Marcum, Lackey, Scherzer, Matusz, Romero)
2. Chris Coghlan (C.Lee, N.Morgan, Granderson, Span, M.Bourn)
3. Jose Reyes (Andrus, Ev.Cabrera)

If you were me, how would you prioritize these guys for picking up off of waivers?

In case you are wondering, he didn’t replace Vazquez, picking up Rick Ankiel instead; he got Uribe in place of Reyes; and Coghlan was let go for Andruw Jones.

The offense has been anemic. I have Bay in one league and I’m wondering if I should sell now. Thoughts?

Oh, and nice NL draft, too. Damn….I really like that roster.

Nice team, for an NL only league your team seems very strong. Out of curiosity, when was A-Gonz drafted in the league?

Yeah, it helps the comparisons when there are only 4 OF per team + no CI/MI. Hopefully at least some of those guys I took in the 2nd half of the draft pan out…

Tell me, does this leave Grey as the last man standing?
Oh – and welcome to the scouring-the-box-scores-top-see-how-Gaby-Sanchez-did support group. Grey and I will be glad of the company.

I was able to get Gomes on waivers after the first week for my 4th OF. Someone ahead of me on the waiver list grabbed Velez whom I would’ve thrown in there for a week for some SAGNOF (starting slow in SB with Reyes and Werth not running). At this point, the FA wire is pretty dry – i was able to snag Juan Gutierrez this week but he’s looking as bad as Qualls these days. and someone snagged Ike Davis on waivers this past week – I’ve got Gaby Sanchez on my bench so the last thing I need is another 1B…

Obviously Dukes is a wash, but as you said, I don’t think you lost on draft day. I like the values you found in the infield and with your top 2, your pitching has a shot to be really good.

With such a deep league, I suppose all that’s left on waivers are prospects huh?

Congrats Rudy. Don’t listen to what the cynics say, married life is a-ok.

@Calogero: Yeah, I wrote this two weeks ago. Obviously not feeling as chipper about Homer Bailey and Charlie Morton right now. Benched Morton for the time being and Bailey is very close to a matchup starter for NL-only.

Re: your question, Brad Penny. I’m not convinced Harang has anything in the tank.

To take his spot, whose numbers will look better at the end of September – Brad Penny or Aaron Harang?
