QUOTE (FouLLine @ Dec 19 2009, 12:37 PM) The CHW position and market is very good. Jerry Reinsdorf (who also owns the Chicago Bulls) is a very rich man who has never been afraid to spend money. I personally am a big fan of Alex Rios and couldn't believe he got let go on waivers. The guy was 25 and tearing the bigs up until he got a staph infection. Since then he hasn't be all that bad but I will say you'd...

QUOTE (Luckynines @ Dec 14 2009, 10:38 PM) An injury-risk sleeper than 90% of the fantasy world has soured on is J.Zumaya. Right now he is the the favorite to land the closers job in DET. and get hurt one week into the season

From 2005 through 2008, Reyes played in a minimum of 153 games. He should start running at full speed after the new year. I for one have no worries about his health in 2010. He'll deliver 1st round value in 2010, as he did prior.

QUOTE (mkcatl @ Dec 17 2009, 07:13 AM) Hey Dan, is anyone worried in Cinci about Votto's little Hiccup last season? what was it Depression? I'm gonna respond via private message so the thread can stay on topic.

QUOTE (mcmastro @ Dec 19 2009, 12:59 PM) Does anybody know or can anybody guess, on how much the yankees will have to spend next year. Well, here is who is scheduled for FA after the 2010 season (with their salaries). This obviously doesn't include if they sign anybody else to a 1 year deal. Jeter-21 million N. Johnson-5.5 million Pettitte-11.75 million Rivera-15 million Total - $53.25 million They will probably...

Think Bay takes the Mets offer of 5 yrs 75 million? I don't think he is going to get anything better.

I know this is a big (read: HUGE) deal in our dynasty league and for many of the rest of you in dynasty leagues, Yahoo's lack of full minor league rosters is problematic in using them, despite (imho) superior interface and ease of use. So I had an idea...what if we petition Yahoo, much in the same way we do for eligibility of players, by submitting this idea directly to their product development team? Please click this link and offer...

QUOTE (RotoRaysfan @ Dec 19 2009, 07:41 AM) Looking from the outside, I have a hard time seeing someone else better the trading job that Williams did (Swish is a particularly bad one both times - it's really like he has some sort of blinders there, LOL). While he isn't perfect by any means, given the CHW position in the market in terms of resources given to him, he has to gamble a bit. I would like to see them...

QUOTE (TheJRod2006 @ Dec 16 2009, 10:25 AM) Isn't Garland a flyball pitcher? Wouldn't he get murdered in the new Yankee Stadium? Plus, Mitre is awful. Mitre isn't the greatest pitcher in the world, but he's a sufficient 5th starter. He can go out there and give you 5-6 innings and in some cases, he can shut the opponants down for those innings. He's done it before.

I'd draft him for 20/20 potential, but hope for 25/25. Great keeper, but redrafts should maybe hold off of a little later. There's a lot of solid OF out there.
